07 | All Fiction Is Rhombuses

A super-congenial convo on the myriad merits of sleep, satire, and scholarly pursuits

Welcome back to Talk Fiction, the podcast dedicated to entertainment media’s most overlooked underdogs: Fiction writers.

My guest today is

, a massive writing talent who—in this humble podcaster’s equally humble opinion—spends far too much time succeeding brilliantly under everyone’s radar.

Join us for an engaging exchange around the creation of his book, Everything Abridged, his experience pitching and landing coveted bylines at The New Yorker, Clarksworld, McSweeney’s, and elsewhere, his penchant for pranks satirical performance art, and his thoughts on the value of luxury cars higher education. If there’s a recurring theme to be found in this “extra” fun conversation, it might be our collective sanity.

I invite/urge you to listen to the full episode at your leisure or read along with the potentially undoubtedly flawed transcript generated here by robots. At the very least, I hope you’ll explore Dennard’s fantastic work in one or all of the following internet hideouts:

See More Evil - the website

Extra Evil - the newsletter

Everything Abridged - the book

See More Evil - the documentary

Stick around and Talk Fiction with us!

My guest and I will be standing by to field any questions or comments you have about fiction writing, book making, plate spinning, languishing or whatever else your inquiring mind wants to know.
