I happened upon this interview after reading “The Novelist” by Jordan Castro (very good by the way, I do recommend!), and was interested to see the relationship between these 2 authors and what their rapport was like. This interview (written in a slew of formats - email threads, long essays, etc by Lin and Castro themselves) begins by discussing the connection between their most recent books - a messaging conversation between characters (mega considering the format of this article), but it dives deeper and more meta as they talk about the layers of this connection and ultimately an infinite novel theory likened to the infinite universe theory. Other things they talk about include what they’re reading or are inspired by, details noticed in each others works, their pets, the clouds, and so much more.
