In this episode, we discuss “The Worshipful Society of Glovers” by Mary Robinette Kowal. What can we learn from this historical fantasy story? Do fantasy stories have a steep learning curve? How can we quickly build an alternate world in a short story? How can mixing genres create exciting stories? Despite the trappings of genre, how can such stories always still be about the human condition?
