Episodic & Serialized Storytelling with Christian Hurst

Do you like reading or watching media that is an episodic/anthology style one-off story? Or do you prefer the more frequent modern storytelling that follows an overarching arc? Sci-Fi Auhtor Christian Hurst joins to discuss different approaches to creating stories, how they speak to us differently, and how we someitmes can throw the good out with the bad when we fail to balance things out.

Read Chris' Lily Starling Series wherever books are sold, and follow him @churstpublishing to learn more about the release of the 3rd book in the series, Lily Starling and the Death Machine.
