Smut: Why is it so hard?
Let's talk smut. What makes it so difficult to write? What are some euphemisms you should never use? And how many hands are there in this sex scene???

Inspiration
In this episode we tackle the question that most writers dread: where do you get your inspiration? So we discuss:
Why we love writing about asshole characters (lookin' at you, Lian Kilen Wang!)
How being queer influences the kind of stories we want to write
Those pesky little things that won't leave our heads until we write them
Writing what we want to read because nobody else is writing it
Aspects of relationships we desperately want to show
How to actually start the thing
So tune in and fic off!

Alternate Universes

Characterization
In this episode we explore the different aspects that go into capturing and depicting well known characters, and some of the things that can make or break their believability. Do they have a distinct speech pattern? Do they come from a specific background? Do they have an affinity for certain things? Is there pirate sex involved? Listen to find out!

___ to Lovers
It's our first episode! And what better way to break in our mics (please excuse our mics!) than to start with all the ___ to lovers tropes? We're talking about enemies to lovers, friends to lovers, rivals to lovers, co-workers to lovers, and all the blanks in between.
