CMO Conversations with Tricia GellmanWhy Product Marketing Doesn’t Work Without Customer Stories (With Matterport’s Robin Daniels)Forget about features. True product marketing is all about value.

Meant To Be EatenRobin Sloan on sourdough and tech brosRobin Sloan is concerned with the intersection of media and technology. His first novel, Mr. Penumbra’s 24-Hour Bookstore, was a New York Times Best Seller, translated into more than twenty languages. George Saunders called the book “a tour-de-force” and Robin kindly requests that no one say anything else about any of his writing, ever. We discuss his latest novel, Sourdough, which was published in 2017. Meant To Be Eaten is powered by Simplecast.

Shelf LifeAuthor Robin Sloan - Mr. Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore and SourdoughWho is Mr. Penumbra and why does he have a 24-hour bookstore? Is it possible for the average human to bake a perfect loaf of sourdough?
These questions came to my mind when I read and loved Robin Sloan's two novels, Mr. Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore and Sourdough. The characters who feature in Robin's books are fascinating and mysterious, not unlike the author himself.
After chatting with Robin, it's obvious why Mr. Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore, which came out in 2012, was a New York Times bestseller that was translated into more than 20 languages. His second novel, Sourdough, was published in 2017 and is...
