About

A Case for Classics

The podcast that tries to talk you into giving the rumored “greats” of literature a chance for the sake of fun!

Listen in as author Somer Canon (that’s me!) works to convince you that some of these pieces of writing are more than just syllabus fillers or homework.  Recreational reading can cover works from decades, centuries, even MILLENNIA ago!  Give me a chance to make a case for the works and you decide whether you want to read it or not.  I’ll include interesting pieces of trivia surrounding the time period of the work, the author, and other things that make the piece more enticing to the curious reader.

Somer Canon

Writer / Host / Producer

SOMER CANON IS A MINIVAN REVVING SUBURBAN MOTHER WHO AVOIDS HER NEIGHBORS FOR FEAR OF BEING FOUND OUT AS A WEIRDO. WHEN SHE’S NOT PEERING OUT OF HER WINDOWS, SHE’S CONSUMING BOOKS, MOVIES, AND VIDEO GAMES THAT SATE HER NEED FOR BLOOD, GORE, AND THINGS THAT DISTURB HER MOTHER.

Okay, you’ve seen the bio that will appear in the backs of my books and novellas, so allow me to expand.  I’m a lifelong fan of books and horror and it is my extreme pleasure to be able to count myself among the amazing horror writers working today.  I may not be on their level, but I’m sort of on the same planet and that makes me happy.
