We had John Brhel on with us in these episodes. He was a bit of an unknown to us, but we had a lot of fun hanging out with him and talking about Marvelry's Curiosity Shop. He's part of a writing duo with Joseph Sullivan and they tend to write horror. Marvelry's Curiosity Shop definitely has a horror vibe to it even though it's more paranormal fantasy, but also a lot of human interest.
Episode 43:
The influences that helped create Doctor Marvelry and Marvelry's Curiosity Shop. Some of the history that helps color the stories. Fun things John and Joe had to research! Does Indiana Jones qualify as a superhero? Read free books by the dead guys, but buy indie author's books! Liberty somehow makes a connection between one of John's upcoming books and the Village People (listen to see if you can follow her logic!)Links:
