Fantasy author L. L. McKinney talks about concluding her Nightmare-Verse trilogy, the possibility of revisiting the world later, and writing other stories.

She talks about her love for this world & its characters but also looking forward to moving on to new stories (but maybe only for a while), the adventures in getting the second & third books published, finding the right artist to capture Alice and the Nightmare-Verse, and more.

Elle also talks about her love for Nubia and how she rallied for being able to write for those comics, and the impact of the stories and their reflection of what’s going on in the world (or not) on the kids reading them who want more stories that they can relate to.
