Bad Lit Friends

Bad Lit Friends is a writing podcast that barely knows what it's doing. And that’s the point. Hosted by fiction writers Meagan Thompson-Mann and Kirk Rafferty, this show is equal parts craft discussion, existential despair, ego massage, and wildly unsolicited hot takes.

  • Love love love!

    I’ve really been enjoying Meagan and Kirk’s podcast! Even though I don’t know the first thing about writing or querying, I’ve loved learning through their journey. The episodes are easy to listen to, entertaining, and full of great storytelling. Meagan shines as a storyteller, and I can’t wait to see her novel published soon!

  • Fun and intelligent podcast for writers

    If you’re a writer who wants to feel like you’re in one of Dorothy Parker’s salons circa today, this is a great show to put on. Meagan and Kirk are thoughtful hosts with easy chemistry. Writing can be a lonely profession, so it’s nice to have a podcast like this one to remember you’re part of a larger community of creative people.
