  • HTP #180 - James Maxey @ Fan Expo New Orleans 2024
    Jan 11 2024
    I sit down at Fan Expo New Orleans with author James Maxey, discussing his book Life in a Moment, which is a compilation of short stories featuring darker themes. In particular, the loss of life and memory play a key role in the two stories he and I discuss: "Clockwork Melting" and "Mercy is for Morning". After looking into how these stories connect with the reader's own sense of mortality, James and I discuss the best ways to get yourself out of bad writing habits and into legit sci-fi author mode! — See Show Notes at www.AaronBossig.com Follow me on BlueSky, Twitter, Hive, or Instagram - @AaronBossig
