Needs More Words

In this episode, we discuss tropes we love, tropes we don't love, and how tropes are useful in our own writing. Also, apologies for the sound of Vicki's chair throughout the episode - she'll be finding a new place to sit for the next one (which will hopefully go up in a more timely manner too!)

In an annual tradition (albeit a bit later than usual), we discuss our favourite fiction, non-fiction, and graphic novels/comics that we read in 2021.

We answer listener questions and talk about NaNoWriMo... and then post the episode weeks after NaNo ends

After an unexpectedly long break, we're back with an episode all about writing prompts: what they are and how we approach using them. Also, it's the last week to get questions in for our Q&A episode.
