More Episodes

This week I interview Beth Cato, a steampunk author with dieselpunk leanings.

Beth has a fascinating Blood of Earth series set in an alternate San Francisco, and her Clockwork Dagger series is "Final Fantasy meets Agatha Christie" (inspired by Murder on the Orient Express, hello!), among many other interesting works. We talk all about it in this episode.

Also, Beth has a unique approach to her author blog, where she's incorporated another passion of hers: baking! Come learn about her Bready or Not posts, which have a nice side benefit of helping her market her stories.
