    Description

    Timothy Willis Sanders is the author of the story collection Modern Massacres (Publishing Genius).
    Modern Massacres is Timothy Willis Sanders’s third book and second collection of short stories. In the vein of Orange Juice (his first collection with PGP, from 2010), stories like “John Lennon,” “Officer Walter,” and “Glasses” examine contemporary life in a familiar, canny way. Humorous and full of keen observations, Sanders writes with care and respect for his characters, from the innocent kids to the flawed adults, all of whom are looking for connection and approval—or at least some kindness in a world that isn’t always easy to live in.

    Otherppl with Brad Listi is a weekly literary podcast featuring in-depth conversations with today's leading writers.    Books, literature, writing, authors, screenwriters, art, life, conversation.    PRAISE FOR THE OTHERPPL PODCAST:   “…[an] excellent literary podcast." -The Paris Review    “Fabulously smart.” -The Rumpus   “…fun, quirky, in-depth…” -NPR   “The perfect way to get the story behind your stories.” -Buzzfeed   “…the preplanned responses of NPR personalities sound somewhat counterfeit when stacked against the largely, if not completely, unscripted monologues that open rawer podcasts, such as Marc Maron’s ‘WTF’ and Brad Listi’s literary ‘Otherppl’ podcast. Mr. Listi, for instance, frequently allows for lengthy pauses in between sentences that convey, without stage directions, the process of someone thinking aloud.” -New York Times   “Good from the word ‘go.’…funny, pointed, thought-provoking. If there’s any justice in the world, this will become huge.” -McSweeney's    “Always engaging and often revelatory…one more cog in a burgeoning literary media empire.” -Filmmaker Magazine   “Listi’s interviews are somehow both more relaxed and more personal than the typical author conversation.” -The Millions   “In a world full of distractions — where almost everything I encounter is practically begging me not to write — Brad Listi’s podcast has made me hit the pause button on my iTunes, blow off social obligations, and sit my ass down in a chair and write. The show is funny, insightful, entertaining, affirming, and, more than anything — inspiring. It’s easily one of the best podcasts on the web.” -Electric Literature   “What’s awesome here is the personal questions, the open quality of the interviews…Listi is a damn good interviewer with an ability to discuss just about anything. His discussions of religion in particular make for an awesomely intimate environment that many other interview podcasts just don’t have.” -Book Riot   “The writers and book-relevant folks [Listi has] chosen to feature range from the up-and-coming to well-established. Indie presses and their authors are abundant, so it’s a great spot to hear about off-the-radar talent. I feel like I’ve gone into some of the episodes barely knowing a name, and I come out with a better understanding of the creative life and, usually, a new book on my to-read list.” -Bustle   ***   otherppl.com    @otherppl   Instagram   Support the show on Patreon   Proud Bookshop affiliate.
