  • 91: The Entanglement of Real Life and Fantasy - Kel Fulgham

    About this Episode

    Fun conversation with Kel Fulgham an IT professional and writer of multiple nonfiction fantasy/horror books. We talk about how real life provides us with direction and a good fantasy novel allows us to escape into other worlds. It’s fascinating to consider how much real life can influence the stories we read; when the two merge we have a unique opportunity to engage more creatively and see the world through new eyes.
