Episode 58 - World-Building

In this episode of the Typehammer Podcast, we discuss why your book cover should be yellow, talk about world building, and play a few rounds of Write on Par.

Works in Progress

[00:46] John is working on his writing prompt story called The Ellensen. He's also been working on the plot for The Rend, his post-apocalyptic story.

Mike was on vacation in Florida. While he was on the plane, his son Michael was sitting next to Eddie Money. This inspired a story idea for Mike about an aging rock star moving in next door to a suburban couple and becoming a mentor to their teenage son.

Eric is resting the writing he did in May on a new story and letting his wife read it. Meanwhile, he's working on the rewrites for Prince of Pigeon Hill.

Reading Spotlight
