S3 E16: Anna-Marie McLemore & The Gay Gatsby

Kat and Claribel chat about Whisper Networks, what they are, why they exist, and how to use them. Then they interview the amazing Anna-Marie McLemore about their Magical Realism books, how they incorporate their heart and identity into their stories, and how they embrace their weird! Bio: Anna-Marie McLemore (they/them) is the author of THE WEIGHT OF FEATHERS, WHEN THE MOON WAS OURS, WILD BEAUTY, BLANCA & ROJA, DARK AND DEEPEST RED, MISS METEOR (co-authored with Tehlor Kay Mejia) and the forthcoming THE MIRROR SEASON. A lot of what they write could be called magical realism. Much of it is inspired by fairy tales. Almost all of their stories find their heart in the traditions they grew up in and the communities they belong to. • Follow Anna-Marie Online: website | Twitter • Buy The Mirror Season Mentions: • Celebrity Book Club • True Beauty • Busted • Follow Claribel Ortega online: Twitter | Instagram | Youtube | TikTok • www.claribelortega.com • PRE-ORDER Witchlings (Feb 2022, Scholastic) • Follow Kat Cho online: Twitter | Instagram | YouTube | TikTok • www.katchowrites.com • PRE-ORDER Once Upon a K-Prom (May 2022, Disney) • Follow Write or Die online: Twitter | Instagram  • Write or Die Podcast Website • Join our WorDie community!
