Synopsis: Author Beth Gilstrap discusses her short fiction collection I Am Barbarella and her new story collection, No Man’s Wild Laura out now from Hyacinth Girl Press. Beth also talks about her aversion to writing longer fiction, her love of literary magazines, and the joys of publishing with a small press.

Links to all books discussed in this episode (where possible) will go to Watchung Booksellers, a wonderful local independent bookstore in my home state of New Jersey.
