The podcast starts off talking about Shoshana's new book, The Desert Heiress, when the conversation immediately takes a turn into video games. We talk about the ways this book differed from her first series, romantasy books vs fantasy books with romance arcs, balancing worldbuilding/plot vs relationships in romance/fantasy, the importance of building a backlist, the spectrum of writing to market vs the book of your heart.

Pre-order Kate Prior's new-release, Be My Bad Guy, where the superhero's ex girlfriend falls for the supervillain's henchman after a kidnapping gone wrong.
