Ep 25 – Interview with ‘Nathan Burgoine

Special guest, ‘Nathan Burgoine, joins Lin and Margrit in this episode to chat about diversity in speculative fiction, found families, working with queer youth, and how to be better allies. 

‘Nathan Burgoine is a tall queer guy who mostly writes shorter queer stories, though he’s somehow up to four novels now. Regardless of length, his happy place is queer stories with speculative elements. Light, his debut, was a finalist for a Lambda Literary Award, and his most recent, Exit Plans for Teenage Freaks, is a finalist for this year’s Prix Aurora Award in YA. He lives in Ottawa, Canada, with his husband Dan and a giant husky floof named Max.
