S2E13: Submissions & Streaming with special guest Lillie H

What if you had a magical window into the manuscripts waiting in a publisher's "to-read" pile? We wanted to find out what that's like, so we invited writer and Entangled Publishing intern, Lillie H., to tell us all about it. Lillie writes and reads speculative fiction and also explores storytelling through the world of tabletop role-playing games (TTRPGs), from creating them, to playing them, to running them. And while you might think a publishing intern reading unsolicited manuscripts would be an evil gatekeeper waiting to tell you everything you're doing wrong, in this case you've got a friend in the slush pile.
