Steven Bassett: Writing Through Life's Darkness and Light

In this episode, we sit down with Steven Bassett, also known by his pen name Eli Pope. Eli has been passionate about writing since high school, but it wasn't until later in life that he dusted off that passion and brought it to life. His first book, The Waning Crescent, published under his given name, delves into the emotional and spiritual struggles of a father grappling with the loss of his son. Under the name Eli Pope, his Mason Jar Series takes readers into a darker, twisted world filled with mystery, murder, erotica, dysfunction, and even faith. We dive deep into his creative process, the challenges of getting a book published, and the storytelling journey. We had a great time discussing his works and exploring what drives him as a writer.
