The dreaded writers block. According to Wikipedia it is a nonmedical condition, primarily associated with writing. But it can be so much more than that. The three of us decide to tackle all our top tips and tricks in overcoming writers block, as well as having emotional epiphanies regarding why writers block can be a chronic problem as well.

On this week's episode, we discuss how each of us create characters. We explain what kind of writers we are and how that translates to the different ways each of us create compelling characters. Do we stay 100% on topic? Eh, debatable. But, we do delve into how our unique needs as Discovery, Architect, and Gardener writers who each have varying needs craft characters from scratch and through hard rewrites, instinct, and fine-tuning, and not all in the same order. Take a peek into how you too can write characters you resonate with and will bring readers back for more. Does one type of writer resonate with you? Let us know!

(And thus shall the the Goblin Army arise! Don't tell the Architects...)

On this week's episode, we shall discuss our literary family trees and how writers are shaped through the media they consume and how it influences the way people create. We begin by waxing poetic about J.R.R. Tolkien and C.S. Lewis, because we believe in honoring our grandparents first before beginning the climb up through the branches that shaped our unique writing talents and perspectives, and we discuss why it's important to write what you are drawn to.
