We sat down for an interview with author Fiona Ballard to speak with her about her novel "Inscription". A novel about family separation, a wedding ring and a fight for an inheritance. We asked Ballard about her research into the topic, how long it took her to finish writing the book, herself, and more.

We interviewed author duo Kate Hyers and J.C. Smith about their mystery slash fantasy novel "The Courtesan's Eye" that they've co-written over the span of five years. We've asked them about their inspiration, important themes and hidden easter eggs––and they've told us about how they met thanks to Dungeons and Dragons, who wrote what and their beginnings as authors.

New week, new book recs. With everything going on in the world right now, sometimes it's more fun to just escape into a different one. We've got some sci-fi and fantasy book recommendations that will help you do just that. Of course, it's good to stay up to date with the things that are happening, but for the moments in between, when your brain is just a bit too saturated with news and information, pick up one of the books on this list. Happy reading.

This week, we have the pleasure of introducing––and interviewing––Maureen Morrissey, author of "Sonder: Janie's Story", among other works. With a story set in 1960's New York, she's exploring the idea of sonder, the feeling you get when thinking about how every single person you see has a life, individual ideas, a house and so on. She told us where she gets her inspiration, where she discovered her love of writing, and, importantly, why and how she wrote her work.
