Sinopse

Today's episode will focus on monsters, mysteries, and money. And how the stories that influenced us dropped us into the middle of all three. This time, your hosts, Alex Simmons, and Chris Ryan, delve deep into what inspires them to become writers, touching on the creative journeys that many aspiring writers have taken. They explore books such as "The Outsiders" by S. E. Hinton and James Thurber's "My Life and Hard Times," iconic pulps like "Conan the Barbarian" and "The Shadow," not to mention the series that inspired us to write, such as the Hardy Boys and Nancy Drew, and the heroes from film and TV that sparked our imaginations. Chris will also give you a sneak peek into the upcoming release of the 6th volume of our "Soul Scream Anthalazine," titled "Annihilation," while celebrating the series with special, limited-time pricing on the first five volumes. He and Alex Simmons will offer insights into some fascinating authors and their works,
