Word of the week: Concinnity

In this week's episode the hosts discuss some of the best monster tropes out there and how to write them in a way that stands out above the rest! From dragons and mermaids to angels, demons, fae, and even gods and goddesses, monsters/magical creatures play a massive role in fantasy writing, and the way those creatures are presented can make a huge impact on the overall quality of the story.  Join Ash and Karissa as they obsess over their favorite and least-favorite qualities of the different monster tropes.
