Been saying this since last year. Looking at this administration's goals is like reading cartoon levels of villainy. I know many writers who have come up with better plots.

I have noticed something similar with the pacing of a film . I make it a point to keep my work evenly paced so it feels grounded , but I have been called "Slow Burn," because I take to page 10 to introduce the hook/ insisting incident, which 5- 10 years ago was conventional wisdom.

Fellow writers, have you ever "what if?" too close to the sun , and if so what was that what if and how did it affect the story , characters or otherwise? #writing #characters #story #plotting

#NoAiNovbember #cat @glassfoxaudio.bsky.social @fateofkorrpod.bsky.social Very small update, but big progress and milestone. I set out to write a plot thread for season 2 and I exceeded my expectations. Drafting the whole thing in less than a month instead of the full month. Happy for the win!

#noainovember @glassfoxaudio.bsky.social @fateofkorrpod.bsky.social Drafting this week is slowed due to the victory of completing my initial goal early. So, I tinkered with plot holes.

Going to post a video on Instagram. But I am updating about my #NoAinovember experience this week. Well I finished the plot thread I set out to work on. That's really good. I will still be working on other parts of season 2. So stay tuned! @glassfoxaudio.bsky.social @fateofkorrpod.bsky.social

#noainovember @fateofkorrpod.bsky.social @glassfoxaudio.bsky.social Drafting this week is going very well. Read the picture post for details.

one difficult thing with being a writer, especially one working on stuff you're releasing yourself or with minimal editorial guidance is: when are you done writing? when is it ready to release? to address that, I've developed a consistent editorial practice for myself. it looks like this:

#noainovember #audiofiction #audiodrama @fateofkorrpod.bsky.social @glassfoxaudio.bsky.social I am participating in Glass Fox's No AI November. I will be working on a major plot thread for season two for FOK this challenge. Fate of Korr is produced by me and Glassfox Productions.

This is exactly why Fate of Korr will only be 2 seasons. However, late stage developments may adjust the format and episode count, but no less committed to our principals . Wolf 359 is missed but appreciated!

Your monthly reminder: Keep writing. When no one cares, persist. When things appear to be crumbling, keep at it. When it's difficult, push through. When you feel alone, listen to the stories in your blood. Just write. The world needs your stories.

not to make this all about my own interests, but we NEED more people to discover audio dramas not only do they rule, but they're probably one of the few entertainment mediums left that aren't mostly controlled by massive companies vulnerable to corruption/pressure the most successful ADs are indie

Should do this next year... But to answer 15 today. FOK- Lel- Solo, Korr ( boy just wants to go home .)

When we hit 100% funded I get to reach out to a few more potential speakers I am chomping at the bit to do this WE'RE SO CLOSE!

You have to love your story & characters. Publishing means revising again & again—after you draft, after alpha/beta readers, after your editor, even while listening to the audiobook. You’ll reread it a hundred times. Loving it is the only way through. #AuthorSky #BookSky

Feeling so emotional. We recorded the last eps of S1 at our recording location. We have a few odds & ends, but it won't be until next YR or later we'll be back in the space for S2 of @fateofkorrpod.bsky.social Additionally I want to thank my wonderful cast. This could've been possible without them.

First they came for the extra curriculars and arts. Then they came for after school tutoring programs, academic support and ESL programs. Then they came for Social Studies and history . And then they closed the school.

Saw this trend ( your screen play + end song) in the #screenwriting , but by the time I collected my entries my post refreshed . First I am going to share my current project Fate of Korra, which has two options. Then I will be posting my screenplay Runaway Ruth. Both will be in the thread.

Keep on surviving.

Hey friends, I haven't been on this week but don't forget about the Kickstarter! We're really close to the second stretch goal which will unlock a pay bump for the contributors. #CrowdFund #kickstarter #supportartists www.kickstarter.com/projects/com...

Good morning #scriptsky! Let this be the motivation you need to write today :)

Got post cards for the 3 rivers arts fest and 3 rivers comic con.

fokpod.podbean.com/e/fate-of-ko... Our seventh episode has posted. Despite recent surprises that delayed the production and the the preferred posting schedule, I am very proud of this one. The actors preformed very well. Give the project a follow and comment your thoughts.

youtu.be/qwBD5xLWB84?... PSA! Signal boost! No truer words have ever been spoken, and this applies to more then just the YouTube community but the Creative economy at large. #signalboost #creativestruggles #finaces #youtube #creativeeconomy @councilofgeeks.bsky.social

Nothing has felt more apocalyptic then a regional power outage due to a ten minute storm. #pittbsburgh #Blackout

As an Autistic and ADHD creator , this post has never hit so hard. (P1)

Didn't even see the ADD post our show on it's blue sky till today. Thank you for bringing awareness to all audio drama's big and small!

Or needing to know the equivalent population of Moscow in 1910, so you can then use the precentage of people in the military , to figure out how many troops your character realistically has at his disposal.

Hello everyone, 48 - Athena (@vocalmancer.bsky.social) is looking to secure funding to help move out of a difficult situation. Currently they're struggling to maintain finances. If anyone is able to share this with any trans social aid networks to help. That would be amazing. Thank you.

@acidemics.bsky.social ISO a written essay, anywhere about Repo the Genetic Opera and how it is an ex. of a modern fairytale. Sparked by the parallel between Blind mag and fairy god mothers in stories like Cinderella. I wanted to consume some literature on the subj. before I formed my opinions.

Listening to Episode 18 of Malevolent. And I got curious about the crew of the show. It's one gentleman. And now on a show runner level I am like "how?" Cause I could not imagine doing that level of production alone. Very impressive. @malevolent.bsky.social

*Banging pots and pans* Ok, once again a reminder to audio fiction people: An 'indie' show is a show that is made without a big studio or corporation backing it. Yes this includes The Magnus Archives and Old Gods of Appalachia. Being successful does not stop a show being independent.

Normalize being excited about your own books. It’s so easy to talk yourself out of hyping your work but damn, you wrote that thing! I assume you like it! I’m mega excited about A Wild Radiance cause I got to write queerplatonic poly and an oligarchy experiencing uh. Consequences.

After encountering fascists at the grocery store , this needs to be said. #antifascist #customerservice

A reminder: We receive TONS of scripts for The Grey List & spend months narrowing them down to 40. Competition is fierce & we aim for diversity in writers/genre/subject matter/etc. Not making the list is NOT a reflection of your talent. Keep writing, keep creating, keep going! #scriptsky #filmsky

Our cats are on the internet neow.

SUPPORT 👏 YOUR 👏 LOCAL 👏 LIBRARY 👏 Checking out a book or ordering one in can tremendously help with keeping libraries open and keeping authors’ books on shelves. #WritingCommunity #Booksky

For different reasons this is a mood.

Spending this Friday night with my kitty. Deserve it after this week. Day job was a bit rough lots of assignments, but I got through it. Also might be smart to get some rest while I can... Next 3 weeks is production for episode 8 & SANGAWA. #cats #qualitytime

And finally, the star of the upcoming #audiodrama The Soulmate Quest... drumroll please... Louisa Stabenow plays Emma, the optimistic princess intent on paving her own path. I can't wait for the trailer to come out tomorrow!

Sharing a very talented person's project !

At this point, every genre has had there golden age. I think it's time we give attention to fiction told by marginalized members of society. Their prespective will bring new life and much needed innovation to film. #disabledcreatives #BipocCreatives #neurodiversecreatives #womencreatives #gayartist

Reposting because it might be worth looking into ...👀
