"Many thousands of years ago, creatives were considered the most important people in the communities. Stories, songs, poems, and paintings were all considered sacred tools and moral compasses from which people learned and receive guidance. But the importance of creativity has been forgotten along with storytelling and it's important role within a community" -Liam Jenkins For ten years I have worked in a number of PR, communications and marketing agencies. With a selection of articles published in Insurance, IT & Health and Safety trade magazines. Writing for me is both a form of escapism and cathartisism, but greater than that I'm driven by the notion that my stories can inspire a younger generation. I believe that the world needs a new influx of modern day fairy stories; stories laced with peril, triumph and moral dilemmas. I also believe that with rise of technology and mass consumerisation, these stories are getting lost. Old fairy stories can seem to be outdated and un-relatable. That's how Dylan McFinn was created. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/lucia-matuonto/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/lucia-matuonto/support

When asked what inspired him to write about a kid who eats other kids in the neighborhood, he turned to J.S. and said, “My brother?” The reporter didn’t know whether to laugh or call the police.

After a particularly difficult year, Majken (pronounced “My-ken”) Selinder Nilsson started writing novels as a way to avoid the room with the rubber wallpaper and the jacket with all of the buckles, finding during the process that she really enjoyed and had a knack for it. This was not surprising, however, as Ms. Nilsson has always had a vividly active imagination, having not only one but two imaginary friends as child. Even as an adult, her characters come to life in her head and their personal stories often flow out faster than she can type. In just nine months, she had written three full-length novels, including extensive research, and is now working on a fourth. Please visit https://majkenselindernilssonbooks.com/ for more information.
