Episode 3.29 - Beasts on the Moors with Lex H. Jones

<p>This week, we're excited to welcome <a href="https://twitter.com/LexHJones" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Lex H. Jones</a> to the show to celebrate his most recent release, the short story collection&nbsp;<em>Whistling Past the Graveyard, </em>which hit shelves earlier this year through <a href="https://www.burdizzobooks.com/books" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Burdizzo Books</a>. We're excited to have Lex on the show since he has written in a variety of different styles including horror, crime and even a children's book. That book, 2019's <em>The Old One and The Sea,&nbsp;</em>finds Lex taking Lovecraft's well-known mythology and crafting it into something totally unique. It's a captivating story about friendship and acceptance that's perfect for horror fans looking to share their love of the genre with their kids. I recently finished reading it to my daughter and every night she was excited to visit the world of Howard and Oolu. This was a great conversation where we covered everything from writing to cryptids and if you haven't checked out any of Lex's work, you're definitely missing out.</p> <p>Throughout the course of the episode, we talked about writing in different genres, the supernatural,&nbsp;<em>Whistling Past the Graveyard, The Old One and the Sea,</em> atmosphere in horror,&nbsp;and so much more! We had a great time recording this episode and hanging out with Lex. We hope you guys enjoy the conversation as much as we did!</p>
