Toxic Lit Podcast #2: Interview with Peter Smetanick

Peter Smetanick is the star of the show for episode # 2 of the Toxic Lit podcast.

I talked to Peter about his fictional memoir, Where the Sunbeams End, focusing on how he blends fiction with fact, and how he approaches writing about mental illness from a very personal perspective. We also talked about the Substack Experience, not having enough time to read all the things we’re supposed to be reading, bad audiobook narrators, and a few other things, as well.

If you’re not already subscribed to Peter, rectify that situation here:

A couple notes:

• I mention how I’m usually unable to listen to fiction audiobooks while running, but Checkout 19 was an exception.

• Peter recommended some writers he’s into right now and gave shout outs to

  Clancy Steadwell
  ,
  Jim J Wilsky
  , and
  Kathryn Vercillo
  .
