    THIS FREAKING PODCAST

    Wonder how a writer's mind works? Then join Jess Moon, co-founder of Shadow Spark Publishing, and her authors Erika McCorkle, Valerie Storm, and Alyssa Lauseng as they talk about everything writing: how characters and plots are made, what inspires them as writers, and how expansive world-building can be in fantasy!

    In this podcast, listeners will also get an in-depth look into the worlds of Alvertaen, the Pentagonal Dominion, Demon Storm, and Alyssa's World. Expect guests, fun, and even a bit of anime, gaming, and music talk (where the best inspiration is, really). And who knows? Maybe with us, you'll be able to find your spark.

  • Writing "Mean" Characters

    Writing "Mean" Characters
    Sep 14 2024

    Do you prefer understated jerks, maniacal evil people, or tentative side-character heroes who become villain-leaning?

    Val, Erika, Kaitlin, Rosa, and Kass get together to discuss what a**hole characters mean to them and how they're written. What does it take to be a really jerk-leaning character? What do we like about them and how do we get into the headspace of writing them?

    And ask yourselves: What Would Lucifer Do?

    P.S. The iceberg in Titanic is NOT the a**hole!
