Our Guest is Richard Ainsworth, the author and creator of the Widdowshins series. Widdowshins is a paranormal fantasy series that centers around a deceptively sleepy-looking village in the Northwest of England where the barriers between dimensions are thin and permeable; a nexus of all realities, where the past, present and future of all the known universe collide. It’s where the Holy Grail may be hidden, where the Lady of the Lake resides in a nearby reservoir, and where the Gateway to Hell lurks beneath an outdoor toilet. It is a kind of Check Point Charlie for the multiverse, where beings from elsewhere and elsewhen can pass into our world. As such, it must be constantly guarded…

Daniel Foytik is the current host and producer of four podcasts including The Wicked Library and The Lift. Daniel is a writer and storyteller who explores his love story and storytelling in all its forms through, writing, narration, audio production, and podcasting. His original podcast 9th Story Podcast features interviews and discussions on story.

Jeanette is an artist, first and foremost. While she expresses herself through many different mediums, at the core she is obsessed with a good story which made her a perfect choice to co-host Season 4 of the 9th Story Podcast.
Jeanette is constantly celebrating all forms of story-telling, and exploring new ways to share new tales. Along with her partner she runs the YouTube Channel “Haunting TV“, where they explore all things horror. They post videos of their own creation as well as let’s plays, and reviews for films, books, and comics.
When she’s not on camera for their channel or podcasting, she’s blogging. Jeanette writes on HorrorMade.com about horror and on jeanette-art.blogspot.com about her adventures in the world of art and design.
