"The story of Voldemort Keach, a zombie who struggles to come to grips with her past." Where on earth did that character name come from? What happened in the zombie's past? And what non-traditional money is in play? We need twice as many guests to make this work, so thank goodness for Amanda Nicholson and Andy N joining us and making this work!

You can find Amanda as Amanda Steel on Wordpress and Facebook, and Andy as Andy N on Facebook or @andynpoet on other social media. You can also check out their podcast Reading in Bed to hear more of them!

"Three orphan girls settle in a plane crash." Is the plane crashing through this whole story? What are these orphan girls doing there? Is one of them an ancient supernatural being? Fortunately we've got our guest Dan McPherson here to sort it all out with us. You can find him on Twitter and Instagram @leadersmustlead and check out his podcast Dreams Are Real to hear him delve into more storytelling!

"A manager of an orphanage and an aviation giant try to drink themselves to death, but it's not long before they reluctantly gather." Why are they so reluctant to gather? Are they drinking themselves to death separately before that? And how does the medical insurance come in? Thankfully we have our guest Sally Bays here to help us work it all out!

"The untold story of the last days of Quinn Oldman, a father disturbed by his own non-Victorian feelings." What kind of non-Victorian feelings are we talking about? Why was this story untold? And who or what or where is Dickinson? Our guest Jasper Fforde has the creativity and brainstorming power to help us work through it! Follow him online @jasperfforde.

"A rock group and a young Christmas loving dog take action." Okay, they take action to... what? Why would a dog love Christmas? And what is that title referring to? Our guest Jonathon Pernisek of the Musical Man podcast is here to help us work through it! Check out Jonathon and his work at @musicalmanpod on Twitter or wherever you listen to podcasts.

"In Monte Carlo, four assassins find themselves making an unthinkable sacrifice."

What kind of sacrifice are we talking about? Why are there so many assassins in one place? And is Alice Malkin one of them, or their target? Our guest, author Eliot Peper, is here to help us work it all out! Check out Eliot and his work at https://eliotpeper.com/

"A grieving widower wants to go to his honeymoon and be an assassin." ...What? How did his wife die? Who is going to assassinate? So glad we have returning guest Josh Garcia-Cotter here to figure out what's going on! You can follow him on Twitter @joshinthemosh89. 

"When corrupt police is haunted by visions of his dead wife, she sets out with a coma, her man suffering a family loss, and a dress shop lease to steal fifty cars." Well, that's... a mouthful. And a confusing one. Thankfully we have returning guest Katie Ahnberg to work it through with us! Follow her on Twitter @things_katiedid.

"Twin daughters and a cop from New York City search for a mining claim." Are the twin daughters the titular Kentucky girls? How do you search for a mining claim? And is this happening in Kentucky or New York City? Our guest Jasmine Warga is here to help sort this out! Check out her website, jasminewarga.com, and look for her newest book, A Rover's Story, released on October 4.

"A used car dealer moves in with the shady influential owner of a nightclub and his life changes dramatically." Why do these two move in together? What kind of dramatic changes ensue?
