Write, Read, Question was a weekly podcast where I put to the test writing advice, tips, and techniques while writing my own novel. Unfortunately, what I put into this pod is draining me of time and energy that I need elsewhere, so welcome to an Infinite Hiatus, and super sorry if this is your first listen.

Write, Read, Question is a weekly podcast where I put to the test writing advice, tips, and techniques while writing my own novel.

In this late, sleepy episode, we talk about the different types of Literary Point of View (POV), including the choices between First person or Third Person, Limited or Omniscient, Singular or Multiple, and Past or Present. We also go over how each of these choices can affect your other choices and narration, as well as some examples of classic and modern novels for further reading.

Now it's time for me to go play Avowed.

Write, Read, Question is a weekly podcast where I put to the test writing advice, tips, and techniques while writing my own novel.

In this week's episode, we talk about the seven different types of literary conflict (Man, Self, Society, Nature, Supernatural, Fate, and Technology), what they are, how they show up in stories, how I'm planning on using them in my story, and why conflict as a concept is one of the best ways to make your story engaging.

Write, Read, Question is a weekly podcast where I put to the test writing advice, tips, and techniques while writing my own novel.

In this week's episode, we talk about the four absolutely necessary cornerstones of a successful story (plot, characters, conflict, and intent), how to judge for yourself what other pieces should occupy your focus (theme, POV, backstory, etc), and what details you're probably okay to leave until later.

Oh, and I lament about having to change story ideas for the novel I'm writing. But it's a change that should result in a stronger product.

Write, Read, Question is a weekly podcast where I put to the test writing advice, tips, and techniques while writing my own novel.

In this week's episode, we talk about our final guideline for improving our writing: the 80% Rule. Essentially, any advice, tropes, rules, guidelines, suggestions, and formulas should be taken as "80% of the time, or more" rather than "always" or "never."

We also get a sneak peak at upcoming topics for the next few months, and our intrepid host slightly loses his mind from lack of sleep.

Write, Read, Question is a weekly podcast where I put to the test writing advice, tips, and techniques while writing my own novel.

In this week's episode, we talk about our second guideline to improving our writing: following Poe's Law. It states that to make your novel the best, every aspect of it must be intentionally crafted to point towards and support your story’s effect. We also go over three questions you can ask yourself while writing and editing to help keep you on track in this guideline.

Welcome to Write, Read, Question!

Join me as I put by butt in the seat and hands on the keys to write a novel from nothing to finished draft in a year. Along the way, we'll go over all the fiction writing advice, techniques, and tips that are floating around out there to see what works, what doesn't, and everything in between.

Whether you're like me and are just starting to write to produce, have 18 different projects spinning at once, or a complete draft waiting to be edited, join me. Together we can learn, grow, laugh at the mistakes, and celebrate the victories.
