  • S2:E18 – Covid Quarantine

    Two story enthusiasts, Stephanie and Jordyn, cuddle up in a blanket fort, drink tea, and dive into different aspects of writing each week. This is a bonus episode all about Covid-19 with some facts and information, as well as some info on how we are surviving. Overall we're good, we're introverts so we're not really deviating from the norm. Camp NaNoWriMo is coming up on April 1st and it will be a great opportunity to get some writing done! We've set up a writing group there called WritersEmerging, if you'd like to be included, let us know on Tumblr or Facebook.

  • S2:E15 – OCD by Neil Hilborn Review

    Three story enthusiasts (Stephanie, Kayla, and Jordyn) cuddle up in a blanket fort, drink tea, and dive into different aspects of writing each week. This week we discuss Neil Hilborn's performance of his poem, OCD which can be found here on YouTube. Mental health is a topic that effects each of us personally so we felt particularly strongly about this piece. At the end of the episode, we have an announcement from Kayla. She's leaving us, unfortunately, and we'll be in a bit of an adjustment period for a while. Next week we'll be discussing the merits of Audiobooks. Hope to see you then!

  • S2:E12 – Sex in Romance

    Three story enthusiasts (Stephanie, Kayla, and Jordyn) cuddle up in a blanket fort, drink tea, and dive into different genres of writing each month. A good portion of the romance genre includes sex, so we have dedicated an entire episode to it. If you'd like to know how to write a good one, and hear some examples of ones so bad they won the Bad Sex in Fiction Award, given by Literary Review, this is the right episode for you. We hold nothing back in this episode, so it is for listeners over 18 years of age. Next week we return to our usual clean content. If you'd like more recommendations that aren't so intense, let Jordyn know. She has compiled a much larger list since we recorded this episode.

    Referenced Material:

    The List of the Lost by Morrissey
    Things to Make and Break by May-Lan Tan
    Birthday Girl by Penelope Douglas
    Chemical by Lexa Kline

    Another by Lexa Kline that is equally as magnificent, but less intense in the content is Sgàile Leannan: Book One of The McClary Chronicles. I wasn't up for pronouncing the gaelic words during recording so I left it out, but I'm throwing it in here. She's a brilliant author.

  • S2:E11 – Chemistry and Tropes in Romance

    Three story enthusiasts (Stephanie, Kayla, and Jordyn) cuddle up in a blanket fort, drink tea, and dive into different genres of writing each month. February is Romance month, and we're preparing for Valentine's day with a discussion on developing realistic chemistry and a bit of a closer look at some of the tropes in the genre. Many of the tropes delve into adult territory, like virginal women and sex in cars, so listeners be aware and if that's not for you, skip the next two weeks and come back for our movie discussion at the end of the month! Thanks for listening, and don't forget to join us next week when we discuss sex in the romance genre.

  • S2:E10 – Romance Overview

    Three story enthusiasts (Stephanie, Kayla, and Jordyn) cuddle up in a blanket fort, drink tea, and dive into different genres each month. February is Romance month, and in our overview episode we will be discussing the history, growth, and some things we love and hate about Romance books. Along the way we will give some recommendations as well. Just a forewarning, two of the later episodes in the month deal with more adult content due to the nature of the genre, but each episode will have its own warning as to the content.

  • S2:E9 – Dawn Book Review

    Three story enthusiasts (Stephanie, Kayla, and Jordyn) cuddle up in a blanket fort, drink tea, and dive into different genres of writing each month. To finish off Sci-fi month, we're reviewing a Sci-Fi novel, Dawn by Octavia Butler. Fair warning, the book deals with some issues of consent, so if that's not your cup of tea, be advised that it probably isn't a good fit for you.
