Talking Transformative Works with Author Nghi Vo: Call Me Fish Mail

We talk to Nghi Vo, author of The Chosen and the Beautiful, one of the Great Gatsby adaptations that have been released since the book entered the public domain, about getting our grubby fingerprints all over the classics.  She talks to us about her inspiration, her writing process, and the strange customs of the American Midwest.  (She also shares a little secret info about upcoming projects!)  Topics include: sushi bakes, Jackie’s chosen family, explicit bisexuality, costumed baby acts, chosen one mythologies, moderately caged eggs, building a magic system, coastal grandmother aesthetic, experimental corn, raccoons, and Latino Dracula.
