Spencer Church

A former aspiring comic book artist, Spencer is the cohost of the DPW Podcast as well as a short story writer and avid reader.

Caleb opens the episode by updating the world on his most recent woes with Alan Moore’s Jerusalem. This time, he does so while drinking a rancid beer.

The main topic of the day is how to submit short stories, flash fiction pieces, and poetry to literary magazines and journals. We discuss the proper ways to submit, give some tips on how to improve your chances of getting accepted, and we talk about some of the differences between submitting to literary journals and genre publications. There’s a lot of great info in this one. 

DBS #141: Discussing The Best Non-Superhero Comics Of The 2020s Drunken Pen Writing Podcast

We begin today's cold open by complaining about awful book influencers who charge a lot of money for terrible book reviews. Then we read an excerpt from Lonesome Dove! After all that, we settle in and talk about the best non-superhero comic books of the 2020s, or at least according to a list we found. You can follow us on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter @dpwpodcast. You can check out Caleb's work at http://www.calebjamesk.com.
