Returning for his fourth appearance on the podcast Bird Box author Josh Malerman is back! This time we talk about Josh’s five-novella collection Spin a Black Yarn. To me, there is no more consistent voice in horror. An outside observer who doesn’t actually read his work and judges by the mainstream -meme culture of Bird Box might not have any idea just how creative, and experimental he is. I was a huge fan of Malerman’s last novella collection Goblin, which we talked about in a previous episode.
Like that episode, this one is a nuts-and-bolts discussion about the narrative construction behind these stories. We also have a little non-spoiler discussion about Josh’s forthcoming novel Incidents Around the House. This is a must-listen for Malermaniacs and anyone interested in writing weird or horror fiction. We mostly avoid spoilers but an hour in I give a full spoiler warning.
