Guest On… Dragon Con Urban Fantasy Track: Cultural Folklore & Mythology in Urban Fantasy Media

Had a great time at Dragon Con this year. I was on 16 panels!!! For those who couldn’t attend in person, there were a number of pre-recorded virtual panels…like this one. This was for the Dragon Con Urban Fantasy Track. We discussed how folklore & mythology are currently being incorporated into television shows such as Invisible City, Ragnarok, & Trickster.

GenreTainment #131 – Fiction and Nonfiction Author Michael La Ronn

Author, podcaster, and YouTuber Michael La Ronn is back to update us on his newest projects and give us helpful writing advice. We talk about being an indie author, share writing tips, discuss overcoming fear, do a little writer therapy, go on a tangent about our rabbits, and so much more.

Michael La Ronn is the author of over 40 science fiction & fantasy books. His stories feature unusual, nontraditional heroes such as teddy bears, vegetables, and androids (but not all in the same book). His writing is about heroes rising up against incredible odds to be the best possible versions of themselves. When he’s not writing novels, Michael serves on the staff of the Alliance of Independent Authors as a US Advisor and podcaster. He co-hosts the AskAlli Member Q&A Podcast where he answers burning questions about self-publishing.
