A guest episode featuring authors Mark Engels and Stephen Coghlan. Both Mark and Stephen write wildly fun and adventurous furry fiction. Come along as we discuss the vulnerability of being a creative. Both Mark and Stephen share tips and tricks for getting that writing down. Mark talks writing either from the abundance of his heart or to fill an absence in it.
