#70 It's All About Snogging : Emma Denny on writing gay medieval romance
Spoilers for One Night In Hartswood @ 24:14-27:00
Raging Romantics welcomes author Emma Denny to the podcast! She and Jackie sit down (from opposite sides of the Atlantic) to talk all about Emma's debut novel, One Night in Hartswood. They also talk about the hallmarks of medieval romance, the gentleness of the genre, the need for more queer historical romance books, and they bond over lady knights kicking butt and rescuing damsels in distress.
