## Resource

Show Notes: For our first episode of April, I have horror writer and death metal guitarist for Broken Hope Jeremy Wagner. He tells me how he got into horror way too young as a child, thanks in part to his mom, why he has such a huge love for 70’s and 80’s horror movies, and the genre of horror that he almost can’t handle. He also told me how he got into writing horror literature, what inspired the story in his newest novel Wretch, and who his personal favorite horror authors are, and so much more.
