Episode 40: Amanda Cook - ”Snow Day”

Tales from the Trunk

This time around, it’s my delight to be the first podcast out there to host up-and-coming author Amanda Cook (@AmandaCook627)! Amanda reads her trunked story, “Snow Day,” which leads us into a delightful conversation about cozy fiction, early-career writing, cosplay, and patience! This episode’s reading carries content notices for some brief mentions of guns and other weapons, along with a mention of nuclear war.
