Lasers Dragons And Keyboards

This week, we hang out with second-time guest, Laura VanArendonk Baugh (try saying that one three times fast!) We last visited with Laura in episodes 39 & 40 (which you can find here). Last time we spoke, we discussed her Japanese culture books. But this time, she takes us to a different culture altogether with The Songweaver's Vow, which is a retelling of Ares and Psyche, but in the Norwegian culture rather than Greek. In this episode: Laura's unique view on fiction Laura's upcoming trilogy...that she may or may not be working on...an epic fantasy. (Angst porn!) Laura's research in Denmark. Nine months of winter and mead! Laura's take on Greek and Norse mythology. Having a reader warning on her books. On writing Loki. Who would Laura go on a quest with? Greek mythology is all about people having sex. Norse mythology is all about people on LSD. ~ Laura VAB Links Laura VanArendonk Baugh The Songweaver's Vow Details on our contest!
