My Favorite Things Episode 16: Wendy Wagner

The concept for the My Favorite Things podcast is simple: Each guest compiles a list of five books, movies, music, art, and other creative works that have helped shape their lives. My guest for Episode 16 is Wendy Wagner, editor, writer, and author of horror novels like her most recent book, Girl in the Creek, which was nominated for the 2026 Bram Stoker Award. Wendy's favorite things are:

1. So You Want to Be a Wizard by Diane Duane

2. Twin Peaks

3. Carr, O’Keeffe, Kahlo: Places of Their Own by Sharyn Rohlfsen Udall

4. The Last Christmas Mixtape (created by the members of the band Harry and the Potters while on tour in 2010)

5. Ark Nova
