This is a show about stories for storytellers and story lovers, hosted by sisters Kristen and Maddie, lifelong readers and recent booktokers with a 100k+ following.

In this interview, Shauna Lawless introduces her trilogy The Gael Song, which is recently complete with its third installment The Land of the Living and the Dead. We discuss how Irish folklore and history are a huge part of her fantasy series. We also chatted about the many themes Shauna includes in her books—motherhood, the spectrum of femininity, power dynamics, classism, war, politics, economy, and oppression. Shauna also shared her writing process with us and how it has evolved from her hobby to her full-time career. We are so excited about this series and everything Shauna is working on at the minute! We can't wait for you all to read her series!
