In this episode of Rocket Talk, Justin is joined by world famous and Hugo nominated Book Smugglers, also know as Ana Grilo and Thea James. They talk about the history of their blog and their new venture, Book Smugglers Publishing. The chat extends into a protracted discussion about the stories they’ll be publishing, as well as Ann Leckie’s newest novel, Ancillary Sword. It’s Smuggleriffic.
Ana is a Brazilian expat in the United Kingdom, who works in translation by day. Thea lives in New York and works in publishing. By their powers combined, they are the Hugo Nominated Book Smugglers. They can be found blogging on their tremendously popular site, writing for Kirkus, or, most recently, editing and publishing short stories, the first of which are “Hunting Monsters” by SL Huang and “In Her Head, In Her Eyes” by Yukimi Ogawa.
