Poet, writer, editor, publisher, and journalist Mike Allen is trying to scare us. And he's succeeding. With another collection out now from his own Mythic Delirium Books, he discusses his novella, "The Comforter," from his 2020 collaborative suite, A Sinister Quartet. The conversation explores this season's theme Alone / Together: What pulls us into community and stands us apart through the lens of the story's central character, an eighth grade girl undergoing some traumatic experiences.
