I’m on this episode I speak with author/podcaster Alan McGill based in the US. Alan wrote and narrated ‘A Cry in the Moon’s Night’ audio drama. It’s a fantasy story Alan has written and self-published along with producing the podcast version of the same story. The story was listed on Podbean’s Top 10 in Fiction Drama in 2021.
This episode by the way was recorded on New Year’s day for myself and in the ultimate hour of 2021 for Alan. I don’t usually release podcasts so long after they are recorded, but my schedule because of covid as been just one factor in its delay.
Together we talk about the story, its success, of course the inspiration for the story and sequel. But we also talk about some things that surround writing or producing a piece of fiction, so naturally we discuss at length the creative process, receiving and giving feedback. This is because I myself am writing and producing my own audio drama. The conversation ends knowing what is Alan’s next venture with writing. But in the Patreon bonus version we also talk more about editing audio and talk more about sharing criticism with other people’s work. That conversation runs for an extra 30 minutes.
If you’d like to get access to extended conversations and other extras, the Patreon is only an $1 a month and your support is kindly appreciated.
Alan is the second guest on the podcast not living in Hong Kong, but I won’t exclude a guest as I’m in Hong Kong and it still fits inside the theme of this podcast (Me saying ‘Hello’ from Hong Kong). We don’t mention anything about Hong Kong though as that’s not the focus.
