EPISODE INFO:
You know when people say that the setting became like it’s own character?
And you sit there thinking…how do I make readers feel like that?
Well Vera Kurian is going to give us some advice on how she absolutely crushed the setting of her new novel A STEP PAST DARKNESS out now.
I read an advanced reader copy for this one and, seriously, this is going to be one of those books people talk about for years to come..
Go grab a copy. You won’t be disappointed.
But before you go buy her book, she’s going to teach us how to write a setting as epic and all-encompassing as hers.
