Keezy Young Interview - Hello Sunshine

August 29, 2025 • 63 mins
Sometimes a graphic novel comes along that is so good, as soon as I'm done reading it, I immediately read it again. That's what happened with Hello Sunshine, the newest graphic novel by Eisner and Ignatz-nominated cartoonist and illustrator Keezy Young. I first encountered Keezy's work when I read Sunflowers, an autobio comic about one person's experience living with bipolar disorder. I was blown away by how personal and intimate t...

G. Willow Wilson Interview - The Stoneshore Register

August 15, 2025 • 63 mins
As regular listeners will know, I spent seven years living in the greater Puget Sound area and despite having lived in eight different states, it’s one of two places that will always be home to me. There’s something about small Washington State towns that can feel delightfully out of time and there’s no greater contrast to them than the technology centric hub that is Seattle crowned by its futuristic Space Needle. It elicits a rang...
