A show about writers, writings, and a little bit of everything else. I’m Aaron Cline Hanbury, and in each episode, I speak with a writer of some variety about his or her work. Or maybe someone else’s work. The point is to chase what’s interesting and good, to find out how writers write, what they learn in the process, and what we can learn, too.

You’ll hear writers claim to write in order to discover something. Or just to emote. You don’t hear as much about — not with fiction, at least, and not outside scare quotes — storytelling with an agenda, with something to say. But some things need to be said — for example, the preferential algorithm life is dumb — and said in a way that doesn’t just instruct but fires the imagination.
