Michael Wehunt joins The Bad Signal to discuss his sophomore short story collection, The Inconsolables. The collection deals with timely themes of loneliness, grief, and the decay of society. We talk in depth with Michael about putting together these ten terrifying tales, what inspired stories such as “The Tired Sounds, A Wake” and “Teeth of America,” and the pros and cons of “pantsing” your own stories.

The Inconsolables and other Bad Hand titles can be found at badhandbooks.com.

The Bad Signal is co-produced by Bad Hand Books and Screams from the Basement. Original music provided by Billy and Danny Yost.
