Author and podcaster J. Daniel Sawyer joins the Robots to expand on last week's conversation on business. Come join us and benefit from his experience.

Join the Robots as they talk some of the business aspects of being an author. DBAs, LLCs, taxes, contracts, and agents. Oh my!

The Dead Robots' talk about self-editing your own fiction. They talk about their processes and the pitfalls.

This week the Robots chat one last time with Justin before he heads off for a much needed sabbatical. He started the podcast over six years ago, and he's glad that it will continue in his absence. The Robots are dead, Long Live The Robots!

This week the Robots talk about Ernest Cline's debut novel READY PLAYER ONE. We talk about what we liked, what we thought could have been improved, and what we learned from it. Enjoy!

This is a special episode, as the title suggests, in which Justin sits down with J Daniel Sawyer to talk about his Crudrat Kickstarter campaign, his upcoming podcasts, and what his views are on the current state of publishing. We hope you enjoy it!

Tonight the Robots talk about thrillers. Is it a genre or a style, what are the elements you have to have, and should you plan or can you pants it? We hope you enjoy the conversation.

This week the Robots get together to talk about staying motivated and inspired, but along the way we also meander around several other topics. We hope you enjoy it.

This week we FINALLY discuss the book Terry asked us to review back about five years ago, David Weber's OATH OF SWORDS. Along the way we also talk about genre tropes and whether or not they should be avoided. We hope you enjoy!
