The episode of Project: Shadow titled "Writing for a Subscription Platform" features Charlie, a non-binary sci-fi and fantasy writer, discussing the unique challenges and opportunities of writing for a subscription-based platform. Charlie contrasts this model with traditional novel writing, highlighting the constant need for engaging content in subscription writing and the different kind of pressure it entails. Charlie explains that in subscription writing, each part of the story must be captivating, unlike a novel where the overall narrative holds precedence. This model allows for the story to evolve and grow over time, offering a more dynamic and interactive experience for both the writer and the audience. The subscription model is detailed as a process where readers pay a small fee for early access to drafts and the opportunity to influence the story's direction. Charlie emphasizes the benefits of having committed beta readers (or alpha readers) who provide valuable feedback throughout the writing process. Charlie shares personal experiences and strategies, including a shift towards more outlining than usual, while still allowing room for spontaneous creativity. They also express the vulnerability and fear associated with sharing early, unrefined drafts and the worry that their work might not resonate with readers. The discussion then shifts to the mechanics of using a platform like Ream for publishing drafts and the fear of judgment that writers face. Charlie questions traditional publication methods' sustainability and suggests that the subscription model aligns more closely with modern readers' preferences for interactive and regularly updated content. Finally, Charlie invites listeners to join them on their writing journey through their podcast, "The Nonbinary Writer," and teases future episodes focusing on media analysis, specifically Star Trek and Star Wars. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/projectshadow/message

In this heartfelt episode, Charlie shares their personal journey through a period of burnout, not from overwork, but due to the overwhelming nature of current global and personal challenges. They discuss the difficulty in balancing their passion for discussing media with the increasingly toxic environment in fandom debates and the broader societal turmoil. Charlie reflects on their disappointment with recent media, like the adaptation of "Dune," and how it missed capturing the essence of the source material's themes, which are so relevant today. They express frustration with the public's misinterpretation of their work and the struggle to find relevance and joy in creating art amidst the chaos of the world. This episode delves into the importance of finding joy in small things and the necessity of living in the present rather than waiting for a better future. Charlie emphasizes the significance of the little joys in life and how they keep us going, despite the overwhelming nature of global issues like climate change and social injustices. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/projectshadow/message
In this introspective and philosophical episode, Charlie delves into the complexities of mental health, particularly focusing on the challenges of self-doubt and depression. They discuss the struggle to balance self-esteem and self-doubt, framing these as a spectrum rather than binary opposites. Charlie shares personal experiences of interpreting support from friends as pity, a manifestation of their ongoing battle with depression and self-esteem issues. The episode touches on the broader societal context, including the ongoing difficulties faced during Pride month and the seemingly apocalyptic state of the world, which exacerbates personal struggles. Charlie also explores the concept of oscillation, derived from metamodernism, as a way to navigate between extremes of thought and emotion, offering a nuanced perspective on handling life's complexities. Themes of self-awareness, the subjective nature of reality, and the importance of understanding one's mental health narratives are central to the discussion. The episode aims to provide comfort and guidance to listeners who may be experiencing similar challenges, encouraging them to find balance and strength in their oscillation between different states of being. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/projectshadow/message

Charlie shares personal experiences and insights, highlighting the difficulties in creating content amidst ongoing tragedies and the complexities of navigating life under restrictive state laws. This episode also addresses the sense of guilt and responsibility felt in the face of these challenges, emphasizing the importance of community support and action. Despite the serious tone, Charlie strives to foster a sense of hope and solidarity, urging listeners to acknowledge the realities of the situation while also finding ways to safely speak out and support each other. The episode concludes with an invitation for listeners to engage and communicate through Charlie's platform, encouraging continued dialogue and action within the community.

Welcome to Project: Shadow! I'm excited to announce that my new album, Born in Shadow, is finally out! This album marks the beginning of a lot of new music that I have in store for you. If you've been following my music, you may recognize some tracks on this album, but let me break it down for you. The first two tracks, Motion and Disharmony in Accord, are blasts from the past from my first album, Manifesto, which was released over 20 years ago. These tracks have been remastered and give you a glimpse into where my music journey started. The next two tracks on the album are covers of the Ghost songs, He is and Cirice, which were the first tracks I made when I started making music again a couple of years ago. The rest of the album features remastered versions of the singles I released over the last couple of years, including Finding Joy, Have Mercy, Into the Dream Realm, Salvatrix Mundi, and Don't Want. I'm thrilled with how this album turned out, and I feel like I'm finally making music the way I want to. If you want to learn more about the album, head over to Project: Shadow!

In this episode of Project: Shadow, we dive into the gay episode of The Last of Us and explore the problematic tropes that it leans into. We examine the harmful effects of these tropes and how they perpetuate harmful stereotypes and stigmas about the LGBTQ+ community. We start by discussing the first trope, which suggests that all gay people are the same and have the same experiences. This trope is harmful because it erases the diversity within the LGBTQ+ community and reduces individuals to a monolithic group. The second trope we discuss is queer male body shaming. This trope is harmful because it reinforces the harmful idea that there is only one acceptable way to look as a gay man, and anyone who does not fit that mold is ostracized and ridiculed. Next, we delve into the third trope, which portrays queer relationships as predatory and domineering. This trope is harmful because it reinforces the idea that same-sex relationships are inherently dysfunctional or abusive, which is not the case. We then examine the fourth trope, which suggests that death or "un-aliving" can be romantic for queer characters. This trope is harmful because it reinforces the idea that queer love can only exist in the context of tragedy or pain, which is a harmful and limiting representation. The fifth trope we discuss is "bury your gays," which suggests that queer characters are disposable and can be killed off for shock value. This trope is harmful because it reinforces the idea that LGBTQ+ characters are less valuable than their straight counterparts and perpetuates harmful stereotypes. Finally, we touch on the issue of tokenism, which is when a character is added to a story solely for the purpose of diversity without giving them any real depth or development. This trope is harmful because it reduces queer characters to a checkbox and fails to give them the same treatment and consideration as other characters. Throughout the episode, we ask the question: Why did this episode and series get a pass? We explore the various factors that may have contributed to the acceptance of these harmful tropes, and examine the ways in which we can work to be more mindful and inclusive in our media consumption and creation.

On this episode of Project: Shadow, we dive into the topic of asexuality  and aromanticism in the character of Wednesday Addams from the Netflix  series, "Wednesday." Many fans have speculated that Wednesday  Addams may be asexual and aromantic, and we're here to explore this idea  in depth. We'll look at her relationships with other characters in the  show, including her classmates, her family, and her potential love  interests. We'll also examine the representation of asexuality  and aromanticism in media and why it's important to have diverse and  authentic representation in popular culture. We'll discuss the  potential impact of labeling Wednesday Addams as asexual and aromantic,  both for the character and for the audience. Does it matter if a  fictional character is explicitly labeled as such, or can it be just as  powerful if it's left up to interpretation? Tune in to this  episode of Project: Shadow to explore the complex and nuanced topic of  asexuality and aromanticism in media and to hear our take on whether or  not Wednesday Addams is or should be asexual and aromantic.

Foundation by Isaac Asimov is a classic science fiction book about Psychohistory, a theoretical science that is able to build a predictive model for life in the galaxy which forecasts the fall and rise of empires and the threats that will threaten to send humanity back into a dark age where most knowledge and progress will be lost. The book is dense and philosophical and lacks the visual and character dynamics that are needed to make a movie or a television series. So, Apple TV+ made it into a series for their streaming series staring Lou Llobell as Gaal Dornick, Jared Harris as Hari Seldon, Lee Pace as Brother Day, Leah Harvey as Salvor Hardin, Terrence Mann as Brother Dusk, and Cassian Bilton as Brother Dawn. How were they able to translate the book into a wonderful series. They understood the narrative and translated it into the new medium with eye-catching visuals and personalizing the stories to powerful character arcs.Music:  Intro and Outro music by Project: Shadow If you want to support the work that I do, you can join the project on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/cedorsett Or buy me a Coffee on Ko-fi.

We have all been going through a lot lately and self-doubt and feelings  of failure and haunting us all.

First of all I want to apologize for my long absence. This episode explains some of what was going on. Also I want to apologize for the poor audio quality of this episode. I didn't catch that the software switched my microphone after the first minute of recording. I will keep an eye out for that in the future. I didn't re-record the episode because I spoke from my heart and didn't want my words to sound rehearsed or staged.Music:  Intro and Outro music by Project: Shadow If you want to support the work that I do, you can join the project on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/cedorsett Or buy me a Coffee on Ko-fi.

I listened to this one again and wondered if you know anything about Storm Constantine, since I found some of the things she did with her Wraeththu universe pretty interesting and cool. There are significant stylistic and thematic differences between the initial trilogy published in the late 80s and the sequel trilogy published in the early 2000s, and she also published some fanworks set in the universe. I hadn't run into that level of chillness and acceptance towards fans or that much change in initial and later books in the same universe before. The change from first person to third person between the two trilogies was a big part of that. Also, magical hermaphrodites that present in pretty queer ways and supplant humanity seemed pretty rad to teenage me. Oh! and the way reproduction works in that series was interesting too. Anyway, thanks again! love the show!

I love this episode. I put off listening because I watched Alien and Aliens as a kid but haven't rewatched as an adult and have been meaning to. Anyway, this audio-dramatization sounds super cool! What's weird is that I actually had a dream as a teen where aliens very similar to those shown in Alien were around on a slightly future or AU earth and were essentially contagious. It was revealed later on in the dream that the conditions caused by the Aliens and the spread of the Alien transformations in humanity were spearheaded and manipulated all along by governmental and corporate powers. Anyway, I thought that was funny, given the plot of this possible other Alien 3 film(genetically driven Alien transformation and cyberpunk bits). Thank you for your podcasts, as always, but the subject matter and enthusiasm in this one made it a really good fit for me.

I'm with you in the extended sand-trout conversation zone. Dune is super fascinating. I am similarly skeptical of this prequel series being anything even close to the vein of what made the Dune books that I got through so great. We'll see, I guess! I'm also not convinced that filmed media can adapt it properly in general BUT I did read that before Star Wars came out and changed the special effects game that adapting Dune as an anime was something that was discussed. I Want That Anime. Limited series style. i want those facial expression closeups and long establishing shots of various landscapes on Dune and some mind bending visual interpretations of what it might be like to sense the fabric of time. I also want the Hayao Miyazaki adaptation of Pippi Longstocking that fell through, but alas, some things just don't come together.

I like this a lot. Returning to and transforming a previous work to make it more your own or more current to the truths and skills that you've been able to unfold since the initial exploration is something that I wish were more of a thing. It has become a bit more common in the visual arts community, and I think that the value has really proven itself there. I hope that other creative people (and even more visual artists, honestly) try this practice. Cool episode.

Exciting! I hope the new format will make it easier and better moving forward for you and the community you've been making space for and nurturing. As for tuesday/wed/thurs suggestions: more regarding the netflix live-action Sabrina would be great! Also, maybe you you could talk about more of the Dark Crystal backstory that wasn't covered in the films? and Dune. Also, thanks for the shout out. I'm not as obsessed with theory episodes as I perhaps made it seem! Theory, recap, worldbuilding, deep dives, anything with heavy emphasis on exploring context and implications is my jam. It all sounds awesome and I'm excited to see where it goes.
