    In Episode 160 of the Friday Conversation, Steve is joined by Alex French and Layla Goushey for a wide ranging discussion about AI, creativity, technology, books, and the increasingly blurry line between science fiction and reality.

    Beyond the Page #19 | Writing Love Into History with Paula Panariello

    In Episode 19 of Beyond the Page, I’m joined by historical romance author Paula Panariello to talk about writing love stories within the realities of the past, the research required to make historical fiction believable, and beginning an entirely new creative chapter after retirement. Paula spent decades reading romance before deciding to try writing one herself. What began with a writing workshop and a very rough first manuscript eventually grew into something she never expected: a genuine love of writing. We discuss the familiar tropes and expectations of romance, why predictability isn't necessarily a weakness, and the challenge of creating characters and historical circumstances compelling enough to make readers care about the journey even when they have an idea where it's heading. Paula also takes us behind the research that goes into her fiction, including learning about deafness in Regency-era England and turning to her 100-year-old aunt for firsthand memories of life during World War II. We also talk about self-publishing, marketing, writing as a hobby without allowing it to become another job, and the moment Paula finally stopped feeling like an impostor and realized she really was a writer.

    A Better Week for Comics & Lone Wolf & Cub Vol. 11 | Panel Chewing #143

    This week on Panel Chewing, Steve and Jarrod dig into another week of comics—but first, they take a look at the state of the comic book industry. Are more people actually buying comics? Why is DC's Absolute line dominating comic shops? And what happens to smaller indie titles when stores simply can't afford to keep them on the shelves? Then it's time for the week's reviews, including Absolute Batman #23, Detective Comics #1111, Punisher #7, Conan the Barbarian #33, Shell Shock #1, The Dirt Beneath the Devil #1, and more. Jarrod also catches up with Rook: Exodus, a series that continues to impress with its worldbuilding and incredible artwork. For Picks of the Week, Jarrod discovers an unexpected winner in Black Star #1, while Steve chooses Fire and Ice: Dark Wolf #2, a visually stunning fantasy adventure that may be light on story this issue but delivers where it counts with atmosphere, artwork, coloring, and lettering. Finally, the Lone Wolf and Cub readalong continues with Volume 11. After the intensity of Volume 10, the story slows down for a more emotional and introspective collection that explores Ogami and Daigoro separately before bringing their paths together again. The discussion looks at Daigoro's growing empathy, the symbolism running throughout the volume, and why this decades-old manga continues to feel remarkably timeless. Join us for comic reviews, industry talk, our Picks of the Week, and another journey down the assassin's road with Lone Wolf and Cub.

    Beyond the Page #18 | Hit the Road and Thrive: Living a Creative Life with Dave Letterfly

    In Episode 18 of Beyond the Page, I’m joined by author, artist, musician, and lifelong adventurer Dave Letterfly, author of Hit the Road and Thrive: Seven Secrets for Living the Dream. Dave’s path has been anything but conventional. From joining a traveling circus at 16 and working as a drummer and performing horseman to becoming a sign painter, RV mural artist, and traveling pinstriper, Dave has built a life around creativity, curiosity, and a willingness to follow the road wherever it leads. We talk about rediscovering the imagination and sense of adventure we often lose as we grow older, taking the scary first step toward something new, and learning to see failures and setbacks as detours rather than dead ends. Dave also opens up about addiction, recovery, sobriety, and one of the hardest lessons he had to learn: sometimes changing your life begins with admitting you can't do everything alone. It’s a conversation about creativity, recovery, reinvention, adventure, and having the courage to build a life that actually feels like your own.
