s04e09 | Writing Fantasy, Making History: On Craft & Communism | with Steven Brust
About this episode
In this convervsation, Steven Brust (@StevenBrust on twitter) and I speak about writing—how plot is like a magic trick—how the the imagination and blind luck builds worlds, and then we speak about his parent's involvement in Minneapolis unionization politics over the course of the 20th century.
Steven has so, so many books. I suggest the Vlad Taltos series, but a couple great one-offs are Agyar and Brokedown Palace.
