ABOUT THIS EPISODE
In this episode, Laura and Rachel discuss why it feels so difficult to talk about their own writing. And then, to prove the point, they talk about their writing projects.
We hear how Laura's Voidhold Zero emerged from two separate manuscripts to form a literary sci-fi whole, and Rachel describes the process of wrestling with too many words to make a portmanteau of more modest proportions.
Are they embarrassed by all this? Of course they are. But they won't let it stop them.
