In today’s episode, I’m chatting with Theory Knight—a sci-fi lover, aspiring pilot, and thoughtful storyteller with a deep love of humor, humanity, and connection. Theory dreams of flying someday, loves Hawaii, and believes in the therapeutic value of road trips. She’s only organized because of technology, is thankful for good vacuum cleaners, and would absolutely rent an apartment inside Canadian Tire if they’d let her.
We’re here today to discuss her new book, Jingle Bells, Sasquatch Smells, and the stories that help reset our nervous systems—especially during hard seasons. Theory’s reading life leans toward what she calls scary, funny books: stories that hold darkness with humor and leave you feeling more grateful for what you have.
Episode Highlights:
- What Canadian Tire is (for those of us who didn’t grow up with it).
- Why being among others during hard times can be incredibly grounding.
- How humor helps us sit with scary or uncomfortable moments.
- Setting boundaries with dark books and knowing your limits.
- The sci-fi stories that shaped Theory’s reading life.
- Writing with intention and bringing only what you truly love into a book.
- Working creatively with a spouse (her husband is her cover designer, go check them out).
