Live chat videos and links

Last Tuesday, Andrew, his friend Doug McKelvey, and illustrator Aedan Peterson all hung out in the Chapter House to talk about Doug’s Wingfeather Tale and to answer questions about writing, the animated series, and more.

It’s good to dig into […]

The tricorn

I love the epigraph for this section. It might be my favorite—there is something about it that is so exquisite and heartbreaking. But an epigraph is not an excerpt, so I picked this instead. His clothes were stiff with sweat salt and stank and he had given this no consideration for months but in this […]

Nightmoths

This section sounds sometimes like a western and sometimes like The Princess and Curdie. An excellent combination. And have you noticed how silent this story is? Each section has at least one conversation in it, but in between are stretches of weeks and months where there is hardly any sound even outside the man. The […]
