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.
Well, it’s been some time, but we finally decided to have another guest on the show! Today, we’re excited to share this great conversation we had with award-winning humor writer and poet Kurt Luchs.
Though we discuss Kurt’s new book, Tributaries: Essays & Verses Flowing From & Celebrating Favorite Poems, we also navigate countless other topics about creativity, literature, cinema, radio, and the arts in general.
BOTM #26: IT – Drunken Pen Writing Podcast
In today's cold open, we talk about our current writing progress. After that, we discuss Stephen King's bestselling novel IT.
Rather than talk about the story, which almost everyone knows already, we discuss the icky bits that nobody wants to hear about. You know the scene! Also, all the racism and gross nonsense, but we don't dwell on that stuff too much. We break down some of the writing tricks Stephen King used to scare readers, and we end the episode by giving a quick top five of our favorite King novels.
