Today’s interview is with Mur Lafferty (she/her)! Mur is an author and podcaster who podcasts about writing and writes about podcasting. She also writes about murders in space, zombies, Minecraft and Han Solo. Mur’s writing and podcasting have resulted in numerous award nominations and wins, such as the Best Fancast Hugo Award, the Astounding Award for Best New Writer, and was an inaugural inductee into the Podcast Academy Hall of Fame. We’re going to learn about starting a new career in your 30s, writing for established IPs, and supporting developing writers.

One takeaway I can offer you already? Getting rejected means you’re a working writer.
