We spoke with Annie Geever today about her path into post-apocalyptic fiction and how writing gradually shifted from a personal outlet into a serious creative pursuit. We talked with her about her fascination with exploring what happens after catastrophes rather than focusing on the disaster itself, and how those aftermath settings allow her to dig into human behavior under pressure. Our conversation centered on character-driven storytelling, moral complexity, and the idea that power dynamics are often rooted in some form of love, whether for a person, an idea, or survival itself. We also talked about independent publishing and what it takes to keep creating a lasting label. Overall, it was a thoughtful discussion about resilience, motivation, and the emotional layers that shape compelling fiction.
