An interview with the short fiction writer Tom Goodyer, in which we discuss the multifarious influences on his work, including James Joyce and Virginia Woolf, the manner in which all writing by its nature is an exploration of space and/or time, and how Goodyer's text Mariana contains the impressions of extended narratives within the narrative following in the steps of Nabokov.  

An interview with the writer, poet, and novelist Tabitha Carless-Frost, in which we discuss a great range of matters regarding the state of literature and her own craft from the influences of folklore and geography to the practice of spontaneous writing and the ethical imperative that should exist in good literature.
