When Violet Knight finished her ordinary day's work, she could never have imagined the strange island she found herself on that very same night. Falinn Galdur is an island where magic, mystical creatures and supernatural beings exist, hidden from the world Violet knows. It is an island only accessible through a mystic portal no ordinary person could have opened but Violet is no ordinary person. The evil witch Agrona's heart and body are hidden separately and only the powerful wizard Merrydian knows where. Something is stirring and Agrona's demonic army are ready to make their move. All they need to reawaken the witch is the blood of Merrydian or his heir. When Violet arrives on Falinn Galdur, she unintentionally sets into motion a series of events that will awaken Agrona. Can Merrydian prevent the rising of the Agrona or is Violet doomed by fate to revive the witch intent on stealing her heart.

Wright interviews a really stellar lineup and includes lots of Sarabande authors. (Some interviewees are Lia Purpura, Wendy Walters, Ander Monsen, Kimiko Hahn, Philanese Slaughter, Sejal Shah, Raven Jackson , Dorothy Allison, Rae Armantrout, Jericho Parms, Marc Gaba, Sheep Jones, and more.)Given the wide range of topics discussed, this should appeal to wide audiences (examples: artistic form, the muse, climate change, freedo, metaphor, painting, ketchup, the environment, sex and sexuality, listening, publishing, war, sensation, slavery, authority, power, zookeeping, colonialism, faith, religion, loss, ghosts ,empathy, advice columns). It seems, too, that it could be an attractive course adoption for courses on essay writing and interviewing. Some notes on Wright: She is the author of two poetry books, one poetry collaboration, and six chapbooks, and as you'll be able to see from the group she interviews, she has a lot of solid contacts in the writing world. Her last books have positive reviews in Kenyon Review, Guernica, and Essay Daily.

""Am I normal? Do other women feel like this too? Am I totally alone here?""Spoiler alert! We're all walking shitshows. Some of us are matinee level and some are sold out, opening night, line out the movie theater door level... but shitshows just the same (did anyone bring the popcorn and Milk Duds?). To pretend that we've got it all together and that we're not just winging it as we go along every single day in this spiralling tornado of motherhood fuckery, is just a complete waste of time.Add in motherhood, marriage, a never ending list of to-do's, little time for peace and quiet and maybe a light dusting (or a heaping spoonful) of depression and you've got yourself a sold out blockbuster of a show (that Amy happily shares on the internet)! A peek into a hilarious yet eye opening account of what #momlife is really all about, without the filters and pretentious bullshit. Welcome to the show!
