S1E8. An Evening Chat with @tessiete (Or, Do Lupin and Obi-Wan Vibe the Same?)
Manage episode 342478018 series 3399719
In this episode, Jo (@pebblysand) sits down for a chat with wonderful guest and long-time fandom friend, Tess (@tessiete). They talk about meeting online ten years ago on the The Good Wife fandom, about quasi-stalking their favourite writers and about their experiences moving from small fandoms to huge fandoms - in Jo's case, Harry Potter, and in Tess's case, Star Wars.
They explore Tess’s work re-writing myths and venturing out into the wild world of original fiction, and go on very long tangents about silly things like… copyright law. They also have a good few laughs about it all.

Your recommendations for this episode are:
- Lord of the Rings - recommended by @tessiete as an exploration of a fantasy classic and lore, accompanied by Tolkien's letters to fans; a great insight into the mind of a writer
- @treescape's work - recommended by @tessiete as some of the best Star Wars fanfiction out there
- Selling Sunset - recommended by @pebblysand because you can probably learn a lot from dramatised reality television
