Thanks for your point of view Jon, it was a pleasure to listen to. OP’s post resonated with me as well. The pull between yearning to put to paper the ideas living inside me, and some unnameable dread caused by trying to actually do the thing. I hope their passion guides them through this uncertain time 🫶

“It can be really fun to just create your own world… But if your passion is writing, you have to come to grips with some of the limitations of what a novel has to do in order to function” Oof, touché

is that a Sponsor at the beginning of the episode?! Thats amazing! congrats! Thank you so much for this episode. This was wonderful. I've decided to shelve my current work and pick up a previously shelved project. I am very excited to dive in and bang this story out. I'm hitting the ground running.

Not great advice tbh. Idk how anyone could picture themselves in a world like Garland’s Annihilation or Interstellar but the idea is to go deeper instead of wider. The OP’s fantasy world sounds dope and I have questions about the seasons, crops, hibernation of species, other celestial bodies, the makeup of gases in the atmosphere, this tree of life, etc. (so deeper) as opposed to wider (new races coming up from underground, inter dimensional/extra terrestrial invasion, magical items/weapons, colonization of this new outer space bc of the degradation of the old world, etc.) all of which would be overwhelming for the reader especially in a one off and not in a series, but even a series needs to parallel/call back to Act I.

100% disagree about the deathnote conflict being 'additive' It's essentially what made the story good. While theme may be the backbone of the story with characters as the heart, conflict is the meat. Without good conflict, there is no story, only preaching.

❤❤❤

I wanted to write For, forever but never could Bring myself to do it, i think im scared. Anyway i would want to do it For me and still be good. i could never be brave enough to even try to publish.

How does this have so few views?

I'm glad this came up in my recommended

I could listen to these for 2 hours easy. Keep up the great work, very informative and interesting to listen to! Ive got a question, maybe a discussion topic. How do you write and avoid pulling in elements from other media you've watched or read? Ive been paralyzed in my writing for a long while. I'll be working on a scene and I'll have a moment where I suddenly see something that reminds me of some other media. As soon as that happens the scene is dead and a voice in my head tells me I'm a plagiarizing fraud. I want to write the story that's in my head, but that inner critic is very loud lately and I'm finding it difficult to push through.

PAPACY is pronounced PAY-PASSEE.

Fantastic episode! Loved it. I gotta know though, is the name of the podcast a reference to Dead Poets Society? A barbaric YAWP :D

Good look at this episode. I would say throughout the series the reason don is able to keep his emotions in check at work is the affairs that he has throughout the series where he is able to tell who he is with at the time about deep aspects of his life. Allowing him to go into work unchanged. But that’s how I see it.

For me as a pantser it always comes down to what I am trying to say. Which is in the end what a story is. If you don't have something to say, you don't have a story. It's not about conflict even, as conflict is often better off as a additive to a story rather than being the catalyst. (Example, Die Hard without the terrorists is not a story. But Death note without the battle of wits between light and L is still a great premise that has a story, a message and ample opportunities for conflict being baked in later.) There is no end all be all answer but I think the crux of writing a story comes down to what the writer is trying to say. The message behind the themes.

I think for me, knowing the reason why I'm writing is 90% of what determines whether I get a project done. Most of the time my reason is just getting the nightmares out, which has worked well Not trying to write novels has also worked well too

>likes the most annoying and boring character in the show dropped

The entirety and of this scene is literally one of the most perfect things to exist

And yes, he reads magazines 😏

Jerry is actually the best actor in this show

Jerry was about to go super saiyan.

The "Bye Jonah" at the end is so good hahahah

I love that he took the time to put on the crab sweater before trying to intimidate Jonah

Funny how I just watched this episode
