Feeling the Fey Fantasy with Terry Bartley

Queerly Beloved

Terry Bartley is the writer of the upcoming collection of short stories, Tyranny of the Fey and the host of the podcast “Most Writers are Fans,” about the intersection between writing and fandom. Terry has won awards for writing and broadcasting from the West Virginia Associated Press, the National Broadcasting Society, and MarCom.

We talk in this interview about all things related to faeries, wizards, goblins and trolls including where do they come from? Do they exist on another plane? Can they interact with us? How are they queer?

When it comes to spirituality, we speak about why he chooses Agnosticism and what that means for him. We also talk about the queerness of a spiritual smorgasbord-picking and choosing from various culture's religious customs the things that resonate for you and putting them together to create your unique altar and spiritual practice.

Finally, we discuss his path as a storyteller and he shares some insights around the process of creating something (like a book)
