Episode 14 of Season 2 is all over the place! Though we start out (as a follow-up to our maltshop books episode) by talking about the wonderful old-time girls' book series from the great book packager, the Stratmeyer Syndicate (Nancy Drew, the Hardy Boys, the Bobbsey Twins and many more), we also talk about Kelly's book review of READY PLAYER ONE and READY PLAYER TWO, a far more dystopian view of our world! And we segue from there to getting writing work as an author working for a book packager (which Susan did early in her career); it's a great way to get on the map and grow some credits quickly! We even throw in the famous 'Pixar Story Structure', which applies to virtually every Pixar film (and many, many others) ever made!
We also take a moment to discuss the banning of our TALK JAM episode 'I v e r mect i n and the Wall Street Revolution' from Spotify, one of the platforms where you can find this podcast (banned for 'violating their terms of service', whatever that means). We've been canceled for our beliefs--yay!! That must mean somebody's listening!!
If you want to listen to that episode, though, please use this link to choose any OTHER platform to find TALK JAM EXCEPT Spotify (these include Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, iHeart Radio and Pandora):
