[From the Vault] – Michael Marshall Smith & Goodbye to a Bad Year

Send us a text I’m on a break – but couldn’t resist releasing something.    Especially on today of all days, when lovers of democracy require audio sustenance whilst they wait in line to preserve America.   For the first From the Vault episode, I’ve gone back to December of 2020, for an interview with Michael Marshall Smith. We talk about his 30 years of writing horror, fantasy, science fiction and assorted dark imaginings – captured in his career-spanning Best Of collection.   Michael gives us all the good stuff about where ideas came from, why he writes the way he does, and all those details that literary voyeurs like us, want to know.   It’s also a trip back into the weirdness of the pandemic, and the dying days of the Trump presidency.
