In this episode, Emily and Alexandra analyze the way in which our interpretations and analysis also play a role in developing propaganda. We borrow from our background of growing up in conservative church communities, and conservative christian homeschooling communities. In summary, we want to encourage adult readers to empower themselves as full adults with the ability to read and analyze with nuance, insight, and without it being a condemnation of yourself.FIND US ONLINE:[email protected]: https://open.spotify.com/show/7CS7MOxj2mQ1B3mhHB4OY2?si=8ce19c01223f4b96Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-novel-tea-podcast/id1675942343EMILYInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/rosereadstudiosTiktok : https://www.tiktok.com/@rosereadstudiosWebtoons: https://www.webtoons.com/en/canvas/its-a-working-dogs-life-/list?title_no=967971YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@RoseReadStudiosALEXANDRADiscord: https://t.co/nITrAz1ov5Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/alovelyjaunt/Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@alexandra_alovelyjauntStorygraph: https://app.thestorygraph.com/profile/a_lovely_jaunt

In this episode, Emily and Alexandra share about a couple of books they’ve read recently and both re-examine their relationship with DNFing – Emily does it more, and Alexandra does it less. Both end up reading a Western, and discuss the relationship between art and propaganda. Finally we reflect on our mood reading as we alternate between reading books with heavy and light content.FIND US ONLINE:[email protected]: https://open.spotify.com/show/7CS7MOxj2mQ1B3mhHB4OY2?si=8ce19c01223f4b96Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-novel-tea-podcast/id1675942343EMILYInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/rosereadstudiosTiktok : https://www.tiktok.com/@rosereadstudiosWebtoons: https://www.webtoons.com/en/canvas/its-a-working-dogs-life-/list?title_no=967971ALEXANDRADiscord: https://t.co/nITrAz1ov5Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/alovelyjaunt/Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@alexandra_alovelyjauntStorygraph: https://app.thestorygraph.com/profile/a_lovely_jaunt

In this episode, Emily and I continue the conversation around ACOTAR with our perspective on tropes, plagiarism, retellings, fan-fiction, and the like. We have seen some discourse online really confusing the problems of tropes and plagiarism. Along with that we wanted to tackle how to do a retelling well, whether its a reinterpretation of a Greek myth or a fairy tale. Finally, we wrap it up with a discussion around the ethics of fan fiction. We’d love to know your opinion on any of these topics!FIND US ONLINE:[email protected]: https://open.spotify.com/show/7CS7MOxj2mQ1B3mhHB4OY2?si=8ce19c01223f4b96Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-novel-tea-podcast/id1675942343EMILYInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/rosereadstudiosTiktok : https://www.tiktok.com/@rosereadstudiosWebtoons: https://www.webtoons.com/en/canvas/its-a-working-dogs-life-/list?title_no=967971ALEXANDRADiscord: https://t.co/nITrAz1ov5Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/alovelyjaunt/Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@alexandra_alovelyjauntStorygraph: https://app.thestorygraph.com/profile/a_lovely_jaunt

Warning: In this episode, we discuss issues like sexual assault. Please listen with caution.

Welcome back for Season Three! In this episode, we discuss the state of publish: traditional, rapid, self and even AI publishing. We discuss the value of art, the material market around books, the secondary market of goods inspired by the worlds we love, and Alexandra completely looses it on the topic of AI. We hope you enjoy our rant!
