Pants In The Chair

Everybody is always talking about Scrivener. It's the program I'm writing my novel in. But, do you need it? Should you be using? How do I use it? https://www.literatureandlatte.com/scrivener/overview randombadassery+pants@gmail.com

4 (or 5) things (I lost count) to help you when you're writing to feel like pushing a Bulldozer up a mountain. https://medium.com/random-badassery randombadassery+pants@gmail.com

Ok, I'm in a new section of the book, now what? How do I get from where I am to where I want this thing to go? How do I figure out a plot from vague ideas and images?

This is the first episode and I can think of no better place to lay out what this podcast is going to be, what you can expect to hear, and why I'm creating it. If this were a novel it would be the introduction.
