Recently, Jeff Vandermeer was a guest on the show and was very interesting and intelligent. I first met Jeff 12 years ago when he was in the studio at WREK while I was interviewing his significant other, Ann Kennedy who was the editor of The Silver Web magazine at the time. I used to see Jeff and Ann around at Dragon*Con and would hang out with them. It’s been many years, though. In the time since I’ve last seen him, Jeff has become quite the hard charger in the world of fiction. I did like in the interview how he completely disavowed the term “the new weird” and said that he doesn’t consider it applicable to himself or useful as a literary descriptor.
