Kate and Marty talk about how they first started writing and then what drew them to Romance.  They also discuss what it's like trying to write kissing scenes when they were kids, and had a limited understanding of sex ed.

If it feels like this episode ends abruptly, it's because they went off on one of their biggest tangents ever, long enough to be its own episode, and Kate didn't have time to edit that monster.

Kate and Marty discuss what makes a story work even against all odds.
