Poured Over Double Shot: Keziah Weir and Katie Williams
Podcast: Poured OverPublished On: Thu Jun 15 2023
Description: These two new novels ask a crucial question: who gets to tell our stories? Keziah Weir's The Mythmakers follows one young journalist as she seeks answers within the unpublished manuscript of a recently dead author while her own life starts to crumble. Weir joins us to talk about likeable female characters, what makes the literary canon, AI storytelling and more. My Murder by Katie Williams is a fast-paced, inventive mystery where the victims of a serial killer are brought back to life to solve the case. Williams talks with us about how she came to write her book, including technology in her fiction, what she learns from teaching and more. This episode of Poured Over was hosted by Executive Producer Miwa Messer and mixed by Harry Liang.
