We're a small writing group in Texas that meet on the regular to encourage and motivate each other to write our stories. Topics range from where we're at in our current projects, thoughts on books and films, worst typos we've had that week, and more. Join the craziness and maybe start writing your own story!
In this episode, we talk about the books and movies that inspired us as youths to start writing our own stories. Then we take a more serious turn and talk about some shenanigans that Amazon has gotten up to. In case they are serious enough to you that you wish to move away from the Kindle, we try to discuss alternative E-Readers and sites to get your ebooks and audiobooks. We hope you enjoy!
Who's here: Bryan, Laura, Leah, and Dodie

Episode 19 - Story Meanings and Trigger Warnings
When listening to writing advice, you end up hearing a lot about messages and meanings being woven into the story. We take our own crack at talking about them, their importance, and if they are needed in all stories. We also talk about our views on wanting the publishing industry to institute a rating system to warn readers of objectionable scenes contained in books. Should there be one? How should it look? Should you include trigger warnings, or would a more general rating system like what is found in movies, tv, and video games enough?
Check out our thoughts and share your own!

Episode 18 - Worldbuilding
Worldbuilding! Often times, especially for sci-fi fantasy writers, it's the funnest part to write. Unfortunately, it can easily become burdensome to the reader if dropped on them like a complete collection of the Encyclopedia Britannica! We talk about our experiences of incorporating world building into our own projects and even give some (hopefully) helpful hints for your own project!
