Greg, Jeff, JC and Jared interview brilliant Award-winning author E.K. Johnston. We talk through childhood, writing and the fandoms of Star Wars and Dungeons and Dragons. E.K. Johnston had several jobs and one vocation before she became a published writer. If she’s learned anything, it’s that things turn out weird sometimes, and there’s not a lot you can do about it. Well, that and how to muscle through awkward fanfic because it’s about a pairing she likes. Her books range from contemporary fantasy to fairy-tale reimaginings, from hopeful sci-fi to quiet epics, and from small town Ontario to a galaxy far, far away. She has no plans to rein anything in. https://jeff-wheeler.com/writers-block/product/nonsenseless-special-10-store-credits-15-off/
