28: Jared Shurin Interview
Travis interviews editor Jared Shurin about his latest anthology, The Best of British Fantasy 2019. The anthology series is dedicated to featuring the finest fantastical, speculative, mythic, magical and weird fiction to come from the United Kingdom each year.
The two of them talk about the art of reviewing, common publishing misconceptions, and what exactly being an anthology editor means. They may also mention some good old-fashioned Kansas City.
Jared Shurin has edited or co-edited over two dozen anthologies of original fiction, including The Djinn Falls in Love, The Lowest Heaven, The Book of the Dead, and The Outcast Hours. He is the co-founder and editor of the award-winning pop culture website Pornokitsch and the not-for-profit publishing house Jurassic London. He has been a finalist for the World Fantasy, Shirley Jackson, Locus and Hugo Awards, and he has twice won the British Fantasy Award.
