Audiobook Lovin' Podcast

Season 8 kicks off with author Imogen Knowed! We chat about sentient beings, author expectations and burnout, Whispers, Whiskers, & Wine, AuDHD, creativity, and the pressures that can come with being an author.

And apparently, Imogen had so much fun during our conversation that it sparked an unexpected idea of her own…

Get cozy, settle in, and join us for the Season 8 premiere!

Until next time, happy listenings!

What if your characters were imaginary friends who refused to leave?

Tricia and Jojo sit down with author Lucius Valliant for a gothic conversation about The Thornhill Vampire Chronicles and his unique writing process. Lucius shares how his characters can live in his head for decades, the real-world places that inspire his stories, from Highgate Cemetery to 3 a.m. walks through Venice, and why he prefers “pantsing” to strict outlines.

Plus, vampire fans can look forward to Phantom Pain, Book Six, which Lucius hopes to release around Halloween!

Pour yourself some tea and join the conversation.

What inspires someone to write the darkest stories imaginable?

This week, Tricia & Jojo sit down with Lesley Camphouse to discuss her journey into extreme horror and splatterpunk, how years of moderating disturbing online content shaped her creative voice, and the real-life experiences that influence her work.

The conversation also explores her spontaneous writing process, her ambitious publishing goals, and what draws her to stories that push boundaries while exploring the complexities of human nature.

If you're curious about the creative minds behind horror fiction, this is an episode you won't want to miss.

In this episode of the Audiobook Lovin' Podcast, Viviana shares her recap of Villains & Vixens 2026 before diving into two important conversations shaping the audiobook community.

Why should authors market their audiobook editions just as prominently as their paperbacks, ebooks, and hardcovers at in-person events? And why is it so important to respect narrator pseudonyms and protect their privacy?

Originally recorded during a TikTok LIVE, this candid discussion explores audiobook visibility, narrator advocacy, and ways authors, narrators, and readers can work together to strengthen the industry.

Whether you're an author, narrator, publisher, or audiobook lover, this episode offers insights and perspectives you won't want to miss.
