So my friend, Scott Roche, interviewed me for his podcast, Creative Dynamos and it just dropped today. Give it a watch and let me know what you think.

In episode 35 of Creative Dynamos, I talk with author Eric Swett, discussing the value of local writer communities for sharing advice on writing, marketing, and events. Swett traces his path from D&D dungeon mastering to fiction, shifting from formulaic fantasy to a post-apocalyptic serial and a daily 100-word exercise that became his first published book. He describes his Armageddon Angels series, featuring Justin—an angel who becomes the Grim Reaper—and a four-book arc focused on the horsemen, plus mystery-focused books filling a five-year gap. Swett explains his approach to world building, his blend of Christian-influenced mythology with fantasy elements, and inspirations like Supernatural and Lovecraft. We cover the benefits and costs of in-person events, strategies for low-cost venues, supportive author communities, and the guiding principle “progress, not perfection,” before sharing where to find Swett online and at upcoming events.
