Ep #84 Interview With Maurice Broaddus author of Sweep of Stars

Very excited to welcome fellow Hoosier Maurice Broaddus. He is the author of one of my favorite reads of the year - the first of a Afrofuturist space opera trilogy the Sweep of Stars. Maurice Broaddus is a community organizer and teacher, his work has appeared in magazines like Lightspeed Magazine, Beneath Ceaseless Skies, Asimov’s, Magazine of F&SF, and Uncanny Magazine, with some of his stories having been collected in The Voices of Martyrs. His books include the urban fantasy trilogy, The Knights of Breton Court, the steampunk works, Buffalo Soldier and Pimp My Airship, and the middle-grade, detective novels, The Usual Suspects and Unfadeable. His project, Sorcerers, is being adapted as a television show for AMC. As an editor, he’s worked on Dark Faith, Fireside Magazine, and Apex Magazine. In this episode we talk about how Maurice got into writing, his early career and how this project came to be. It is mostly spoiler free. Although at some point I do suggest you pause if you have not read the book •You can find my books here:  Amazon-https://www.amazon.com/David-Agranoff/e/B004FGT4ZW     •And me here:  Goodreads-http://www.goodreads.com/author/show/2988332.David_Agranoff   Twitter-https://twitter.com/DAgranoffAuthor   Blog-http://davidagranoff.blogspot.com/
