Episode# 144: Josh Malerman on Spin a Black Yarn

Returning for his fourth appearance on the podcast Bird Box
author Josh Malerman is back! This time we talk about Josh’s
five-novella collection Spin a Black Yarn. To me, there is no
more consistent voice in horror. An outside observer who doesn’t
actually read his work and judges by the mainstream -meme culture
of Bird Box might not have any idea just how creative, and
experimental he is. I was a huge fan of Malerman’s last novella
collection Goblin, which we talked about in a previous episode.





Like that episode, this one is a nuts-and-bolts discussion about
the narrative construction behind these stories. We also have a
little non-spoiler discussion about Josh’s forthcoming novel
Incidents Around the House. This is a must-listen for
Malermaniacs and anyone interested in writing weird or horror
fiction. We mostly avoid spoilers but an hour in I give a full
spoiler warning.
