Talking Writing with Laura Powers

Earlier this month, I got the chance to chat with the multi-talented Laura Powers about film festivals, Nightmare Cinema, and the philosophical approach to writing that I like to think of as “the long game.”

You can listen in on that conversation by clicking the player above. If you like what you hear, there’s plenty more where that came from.

Our “From Book to Screen” episode is the latest installment of Write Hot, a podcast focusing on writers and writing. Additionally, Laura hosts the programs Healing Powers (health and wellness), Behind the Scenes (filmmaking and screenwriting), and Behind the Music (songwriting, music production, and performance), among others.

In “From Book to Screen,” Laura and I touch on the intersection between fiction and music — a topic that we’ll get the chance to explore in more detail when we sit down for a Behind the Music session (currently scheduled for next week). Should be a fun time.

Other news: I’ve been in conversation with W.H. Horner Editorial and Design — the firm that designed this website way back in 2010. Web-content platforms have changed quite a bit since, and it’s time for an upgrade.

Over the past few weeks, I’ve been making minor adjustments. The banner above now features display art by Jason Zerrillo (from Voices: Tales of Horror), and the media page has been enhanced with some new and redesigned content. In the days ahead, I hope to revamp the music page as well.

But such tweaks will pale in comparison to what I have in mind for later this year. Big changes are coming. Look out 2019.
