Our fall episode of Plume: A Writer’s Podcast is out now, and we are so excited for you to hear from the lovely, brilliant Crystal K. Odelle. In this episode, Sam and Melanie talk with Crystal about flash prose, trans identity, the blurred lines between fiction and nonfiction, liminal spaces, chapbook publishing, RPG writing, and more! Along the way, Crystal speaks beautifully about the intimate work involved in revision, and the long path a story can take on the way to becoming a flash fiction.
Listen now on Buzzsprout or wherever you get your podcasts.
Please be sure to check out Crystal’s GoFundMe, too!
