It’s a podcast crossover! Ronnie Martin of The Happy Rant joins us in-studio in exotic Indianapolis to talk nostalgia, Christmas and romance novels, and trying to read theology.
And by “in-studio” I mean “in the hallway outside the exhibit hall at TGC.”
Listen in as we discuss:
- Why Ronnie enjoys romance and Christmas novels
- What’s really nice about writing for kids
- If the name “Joseph” is cult-y
- What are the boundaries of Ronnie’s Christmas season?
- Is there a mindlessness to Christian living and theology books?
- Can you reach a saturation point with a type of book?
- Why Ronnie is anti-self-publishing
