Why the Hell Did I Write This
There's a lot of great writing out there, most of which you'll never know exists. I find fabulous writing with a compelling back story and the writer reads 2-5 minutes of their work. We discuss the why the hell they wrote it (which is as fascinating as the writing itself), and I add my own thoughts at the end because I always think I have something insightful to say. (Psst... it can be any type of writing - horror, fiction, comedy, TV pilot, etc. - and any kind of writer. One never knows when genius will strike.)
Why the Hell Did I Write This

Celebrated horror writer Clay McLeod Chapman reads from his newest book, Kill Your Darling, about a man whose son was hideously killed years before and the killer was never caught.
We discuss Clay’s lifelong fascination with horror and what makes horror such a compelling, though still taboo, genre.
