\u201cIt's more than responsibility. It's fear of just sucking \u2014 I don't want to write some garbage that people are going to dismiss.\u201d
John Wray\u2019s new novel Gone to the Wolves brings the world of heavy metal to the masses, following a group of young people on a nonstop ride from teenage angst to the dark recesses of doomsday cults. Wray joins us to talk about the responsibility of writing about subcultures, his vibrant characters, music you can listen to while you write and more with guest host, Jenna Seery. We end this episode with TBR Topoff book recommendations from Marc and Madyson.
