As it turns out, a big part of Carroll's life is so embroiled in controversy that Tyler didn't even have to make up a conspiracy theory about the author.  Hannah read: "The Mystery of Lewis Carroll" by Jenny Wolff Tyler read: "The Story of Alice: Lewis Carroll and the Secret History of Wonderland" by Robert Douglas-Fairhurst Thank you to Jake Bassen for our t...2023-01-301h 20Between Lewis & LovecraftBetween Lewis & LovecraftMary Shelley, creator of FrankensteinIf Mary Shelley's life were a book, you'd put it down because it sounds too dramatic and tragic to be believable. By her mid-20s, the creator of "Frankenstein" had run off with a poet, been disowned by her family, lost four children, published a literary masterpiece, and been widowed. Tyler and Hannah spend far too much time ragging on Mary's husband, and Tyler has quite the theory about the deeper meaning behind "Frankenstein."

Tyler bravely disavows racism, Hannah reiterates the necessity of hiring a good editor, and neither one of us can decide whether to recommend reading this book or not.   We also have an exciting announcement!   https://tidd.ly/3BDh4Ul   Submissions for the Halloween flash fiction special are closed now, but we still want to see your work!

The first novel she had ever written had been published, become a bestseller, and been awarded the Pulitzer Prize all within a year. Almost overnight she had gone from an anonymous Alabaman to one of the most influential American authors in history. So why, then, didn’t this promising young writer publish anything else after “To Kill a Mockingbird”? Hannah and Tyler examine Lee’s incredible rise to prominence and her withdrawal from the spotlight.   Hannah read: “Mockingbird: A Portrait of Harper Lee” by Charles J. Shields2022-09-201h 40Between Lewis & LovecraftBetween Lewis & LovecraftSherlock Holmes and the super chill caseHannah and Tyler get off topic early and often in this month’s chill episode. But we do try to talk a little more about Arthur Conan Doyle, the Sherlock Holmes adaptations we like and the ones we don’t, and how the mystery genre has changed since Doyle’s time. And we’re surprised and delighted by a poetry submission from longtime friend of the podcast, Bradley Botts.   Thank you to Jake Bassen for our theme song: https://soundcloud.com/jakebassen As well as Cam Clawson, for our Correspondence Remix: https://soundcloud.com/camcl...2022-09-061h 14Between Lewis & LovecraftBetween Lewis & LovecraftSir Arthur Conan DoyleSir Arthur Conan Doyle is best known for creating the iconic character of Sherlock Holmes.

We talked with them about their work, writing process, what made them decide to go the independent publishing route, and more.   Back in their respective studios, Hannah and Tyler end the episode with another round of 1-Star Reviews of Books We've Talked About on the Show and Tyler does.... not as well as he did the first time.   00:00 The hosts catch up on what they've been reading/writing lately 26:30 Interviews from the arts festival 1:29:15 1-S...2022-08-071h 51Between Lewis & LovecraftBetween Lewis & LovecraftWilliam Shakespeare: Netflix and QuillWilliam Shakespeare is the most famous playwright of all time, but his life is largely a mystery. No one wrote about his life when he was alive, and he left few (if any) personal writings and letters behind for historians to study. But Tyler and Hannah still found plenty to discuss during this episode, including Shakespeare's dad's fall from societal grace after being caught trafficking one very controversial material, Shakespeare's marriage to Anne Hathaway, and of course speculation that many of his most famous sonnets are about a man. Biography: “Will in the World” by Stephen Greenblatt Than...2022-07-251h 31Between Lewis & LovecraftBetween Lewis & LovecraftBorn to Chill in the Mist!We just chillin'! Talking more about Brandon Sanderson, mainly focusing on his Laws of Magic. We end the episode with a new game where Hannah reads truly scathing reviews of books we've talked about on the show and Tyler has to guess the book.   And Tyler’s fantasy sitcom “The Penny Lich” is out now!

But a moving eulogy written by emerging fantasy author Brandon Sanderson caught the attention of Jordan’s widow, Harriet McDougal. After reading just a couple chapters of Sanderson’s novel “Mistborn,” McDougal knew she’d found the author to finish her husband’s series. But before Sanderson finished one of the biggest fantasy series of the 21st century, he considered giving up on writing altogether.

But before he wrote the several million words that would become his legacy, Rigney/Jordan served in Vietnam, became a nuclear engineer, and had a near-death experience that inspired him to finally pick up a pen.

And Hannah is relieved, to say the least. Both of us need more time to prep for the next couple of episodes which will cover the lives of fantasy authors Robert Jordan and Brandon Sanderson, but we wanted to check in, offer a preview of the upcoming episodes, and discuss fantasy as a genre (and some of its main sub-genres). ...2022-05-161h 01Between Lewis & LovecraftBetween Lewis & LovecraftDan Brown — The Religious Evolution of the Angels & Demons AuthorDan Brown is the author of the bestselling Robert Langdon series, which follows a Harvard professor of symbology who must solve clues and codes in a race against the clock in each installment. Perhaps most famous is "The Da Vinci Code," Brown's first bestselling novel and the one that drew the ire of the Catholic Church. But as Hannah, Tyler, and special guest cohost Aly Fitzgerald learned, Brown's religious views are much more complicated than the prevailing narrative would have you believe.   We also discuss his childhood, early music career (spoiler: it involves a lot o...2022-05-011h 28Between Lewis & LovecraftBetween Lewis & LovecraftFyodor Dostoevsky — How a Political Prisoner and Siberian Exile Became One of Russia’s Most Famous AuthorsFyodor Dostoevsky (1821-1881) is one of Russia's most acclaimed writers. His most famous novels include Crime and Punishment, The Idiot, Demons, and The Brothers Karamazov. Although Dostoevsky created many works that were celebrated even within his lifetime, his life was anything but easy. He became orphaned as a teenager, was exiled to Siberia for reading banned materials, and struggled with disastrous spending habits that nearly lost him a decade of his work.
