Ep 39 - Author Nick Coveney

I am joined by Nick Coveney as we talk about his debut Queer YA novel 'Everything Not Saved' combining the power of video games, and the potential of young love with magic, horror and the supernatural. Think Stranger Things meets Sex Education, by way of Buffy and Ready Player One. The book has been funded via kick starter. I talk to Nick about the process of the book, what inspired him to write it and the future of the project.
