A great pleasure to welcome back Elena Passarello to the show to talk about … jeez … just about everything.

This was very much a shoot-the-shizz pod, but when it comes to Elena, there are few people you’d rather be listening to. So if you dug episodes with Bronwen Dickey and Peter Brown Hoffmeister, you’re in the right place, CNFers!

We dig into lots of stuff about working through the morass of a writing project and the toxic feelings of jealousy and just not having the time to feel those feelings anymore. Thanks to Patreon member Betsy for pushing us in that direction.

Check out Elena’s amazing books, Animals Strike Curious Poses and Let Me Clear My Throat. If you don’t want to read her work after listening to her, then … I just don’t know, man, I thought I knew you … I thought you were my friend!
