Writing Sword and Sorcery Fiction with Howard Andrew Jones

Tales from the Magician’s Skull magazine editor and author Howard Andrew Jones returns to the podcast. In the discussion, we define the sword and sorcery genre. We cover the submissions guidelines for Tales from the Magician’s Skull magazine and Howard tells us feelings about dwarf and elf detective stories.

Howard enlightens us as to why stories shouldn’t include whiny characters when writing. We also talk about why simply writing up our RPG campaigns usually does not work as short stories. Plus, we talk about Howard’s new novel released in August 2021 called When the Goddess Wakes.
