Page Break Episode 7: Aliette de Bodard

The seventh episode of my new podcast Page Break is now out! In this episode, my guest is software engineer and award-winning science fiction and fantasy author Aliette de Bodard.

Aliette has been published in magazines, ezines, collections, and in long form by major publishers across a prolific career. She has either been nominated for or outright won many of the big awards in genre publishing.

Aliette and I talked about history and conflict; about writing and rewriting, and how working with translators and being multilingual change the way writers think about our stories.


Page Break with Brian McClellan is a collection of casual conversations between me and fellow creative professionals—like two friends sitting down over lunch to discuss career, craft, family, and hobbies.

Authorhood is a quiet sort of minor fame where the person behind the words is often obscured by the works they’ve created. I aim to use this podcast to find out more about my friends and colleagues.

Look forward to weekly conversations with creators like romantic fantasy author Charlie Holmberg, podcaster Veronica Belmont, epic fantasy author Peter V. Brett, science fiction author Wesley Chu, and many more!
