In this week’s episode of Fiction Fanatics, the crew sit down with the brilliantly atmospheric storyteller, Riley S. Quinn. Known for her rich folklore influences, emotionally charged plots, and hauntingly beautiful prose, Riley opens up about her creative process, the origins of her most beloved characters, and how she weaves myth, memory, and raw human emotion into every chapter.

We talk about:

• 🌲 How folklore shapes her writing and worldbuilding
• ❤️‍🔥 The complex relationships and emotional knots her characters face
• ✍️ Her writing rituals, creative struggles, and unexpected inspirations
• 👀 What readers always get wrong — and what she secretly loves
• 📚 A sneak peek at what she’s working on next

Whether you’re a longtime Riley fan or discovering her for the first time, this conversation is cozy, atmospheric, and absolutely unforgettable.
