Summary: Read by Danielle Daly. Listen above or download here. Show Notes Today we present Lizzy Viscera and the Quest for the Perfect Sandwich by Spencer Koelle. Spencer tells us, “This is the first story I wrote at Susquehanna University. I’d transferred into the college as a creative writing major, and when I found out I hadn’t been registered for any creative writing classes, I pledged to make up for that deficit by writing at least two new short stories that term.” The author I most admire is Garth Nix, and after reading ‘Sabriel’ I thought about the lack of positive role models for necromancers in contemporary fiction. I also wanted to overturn that Doom and Gloom image that so often goes with practitioners of the craft, along with the image that female necromancers have to be model-thin gothic beauties with skull bras.” You can find out more about Spencer at www.spencerkoelle.com.
