#49 - Kyle Kirrin on Travis Baldree, Shadeslinger, and the Importance of Being Frank!

Hey hey everyone,so this week we have a special, because Ripple System 5 is coming out in 3 days from now, and I AM SO STOKED, YOU GUYS! In honor of this release, I interviewed the one, the only, Kyle Kirrin!We're talking about basically everything from his time using a chainsaw on a daily basis to how he enjoys life in the wilds more than in the city, but we also get some great writing advice and insights into how he came up with Frank and the way his books sustain their tension even though they're "just" VRMMORPG books. Oh and we gush about Travis Baldree a lot.So basically, if you love Shadeslinger, this is the podcast for you!P.S. We did have a bit of an audio issue throughout the podcast, which made it hard for me to edit this episode. So if the quality is a bit off, I'm sorry!-----------------------------------------If you want to listen to the entire podcast without ads, PLUS at least an hour of additional content for EVERY EPISODE, here's a link to our Patreon! https://linktr.ee/madix3(You can also find my own book here 🙂 )I am active in these Discords and Groups!
