Episode Nineteen - Doctor Sleep w/Alex Grass (Writer of Dreck, A Boy's Hammer, Black River Lantern)
from The Constant Reader Podcast - The Canon of Stephen King · host Richard Sheppard
Apologies for the wait on this one, thanks for your patience. We will be returning to our celebration of Epix TV's Chapelwaite soon, but for now I was luck enough to sit down with Alex Grass, author of Dreck, about addiction, the writing life, and Stephen King's novel Doctor Sleep. Alex is a fascinating chap, and a fine writer, and I urge you to seek out his work here. Thanks to Goran Grmusa at the Dickinson Publishing Group for facilitating this interview. Back to Chapelwaite soon, and in the coming weeks I will be talking to Evan Lampe of the Hundred Pages podcast about the original short story, as well as talking to Steph Mckenna (The Thirst, Evolution of Horror) about the TV series. This episode was hosted by Richard Sheppard, with research and support from Dr Linda Sheppard, and technical and sound production by "The Mad Professor" Stephen L. Parkes.
