In this episode of Books and Beyond, I welcome author Jeff Pantanella, whose journey spans from formal art school training to creating video game backgrounds and now crafting expansive fantasy worlds. We explore how his deep-rooted artistic background shapes his approach to world building and storytelling. Jeff shares how years spent in non-creative professions ultimately rekindled his creative spirit, driving him to find expression through writing fantasy fiction. We discuss his unique creative process, personal reading preferences, and the various passions that continue to inspire his work.
