Today, Joshua Robertson, whose work has been featured a number of times here, comes back on the show to catch up and talk about exciting new developments. He was last on the show on Episode #32 over a year ago, so a lot has happened since then! His fan base has grown considerably, and he’s made the leap to being a full time author.
This year, he completed this trilogy of novels:
The last volume of the series, Maharia, just came out. Click on the picture of the book below to read a preview! Stay tuned in the near future as this series is becoming an audiobook trilogy.
He will also be a regular contributor to the fantasy site Fantasy Faction with a column on writing, cover design, and many other tips for aspiring and current authors. (By the way, he recommends the book, The Fantasy Fiction Formula, as a great guide for writing in this genre.) As with the last time he came on the show, there are lots of great writing tips for aspiring authors, so check out the episode for a listen. If you are and were a Dungeons and Dragons player at any point, you may also find his take on how D and D has helped his writing.

The ending track, called “Between Two Worlds” was inspired by some of the introspective parts (like this one) from the soundtrack The Crow by Graeme Revell. Watch for it on bandcamp in the next few weeks.
As always, thanks for listening!
