We open the episode with an interesting discussion about international publishing and how the differences in British versus American style guides can change an author’s work.

After that, we go over a list of Neil Gaiman’s “best” books and give our immature critiques on the substance of said list. We also discuss some of our favorite Neil Gaiman books and get pretty dumb while doing so.

DBS #140: A Terrible Review Of Ham On Rye By Charles Bukowski – Drunken Pen Writing Podcast
