What up Fermented Folks?!
This week we continue our celebration of the holiday season with a classic British satire take on the conventions of Christmas from England’s most beloved and prolific author: Terry Pratchett.
Coming from the Discworld Series (with over sixty books), this story is Pratchett’s interpretation of Santa from his own fictional realm and aside from being absolutely hilarious, this book is touching and meaningful in an exploratory fashion. Pratchett seamlessly weaves humor, theme, world-building, and in-depth character development throughout the course of this short but fully fleshed narrative.
Or does he? Maybe that’s all BS and really, he’s just a Douglas Adams wannabe…
The dice gods shall decide which end of the spectrum we shall champion and which our guest shall take up arms for.
Who is our guest anyways?
I am Nathaniel J. Darkish, a horror writer and the co-host of the podcast Scream Kings. I have a degree in creative writing from Utah State University and work as a high school English and creative writing teacher. I live in northern Utah with my wife and two children.
Scream Kings is a wonderful podcast with a fantastic slate of hosts and a steady roster of distinguished guests. You should definitely CHECK IT OUT RIGHT HERE!
Until next week, thanks for being here ya’ll.
