Tell The Damn Story, #377: From Comics to Novels_ Writing Wisdom with Tom & Jeannine


Listen Later

Here it is! Another fun-fact-tips-filled episode of Tell The Damn Story!

Today, hosts Chris and Alex are joined by two of their favorite returning guests and accomplished writers, Tom Sniegoski and Jeannine Acheson.

Together, they dive into the wild world of writing—spanning comics, graphic novels, and original fiction—and share candid insights on navigating creative collaborations, writing for established IPs like Vampirella and Hellboy, and the whirlwind that is San Diego Comic Con.

Tom and Jeannine walk us through the ups and downs of tackling well-loved characters, overcoming the infamous imposter syndrome, and finding their voices in new spaces. They discuss the challenges and rewards of pitching, the realities of professional rejection, and the thrill (and intimidation) of adding their mark to iconic franchises.

Plus, we get a first look at their original novella, Neera: A Constance Evermore Story, arriving this September, and hear some behind-the-scenes tales from their latest Comic Con adventure—networking, pitching, and navigating the overwhelming world of fandom.
