This week’s guests are author Brian Birnbaum and Editor-in-Chief M.K. Rainey from Dead Rabbits books, and we’re discussing their debut novel, EMERALD CITY, set in Seattle.

We discuss literary fiction and how that differs from “airport novels”, as well as vocabulary use and staying true to your creative vision. We also talk about “book tubes” and having “Virgo Energy” with all of our birthdays around the same time (which does include a recap of how I spent my birthday!)

Learn more about Dead Rabbits at their website: https://www.deadrabbitsbooks.com/ including information about the artists, podcasts, community events, merch, recommendations, submissions, and more!
