Writeopolis!

By: RJ Barker Scott K Andrews Kit Power
  • Summary

  • What is Writeopolis? Writeopolis is a fortnightly (or, for US listeners, twice a month) conversation between writing professionals (and Kit Power). The conversation happens live every other Sunday evening via Discord, with live text chat accompanying the voice discussion (no video; RJ and Kit don't have that kind of time to sort their hair out every weekend). The resultant conversation is later released in podcast form via this feed. Who is Writeopolis? Writeopolis is BFS Award winner RJ Barker, author and playwright Scott K Andrews, and BFA finalist author, blogger, podcaster and procrastinator (and the one who does all the work) Kit Power, in conversation every fortnight with professionals from across the writing industry. The aim is to recreate the conversational vibe of chatting at the bar of a really good con with the guest of honour. Without the stale chips and having to yell to be heard. Though if you want stale chips, that's fine, we guess. But they are not provided. When and where is Writeopolis? Every other Sunday - 8:30pm to 9:30(ish)pm on Discord - https://discord.gg/SxBWXrbnWp , with recordings appearing here the following Friday for Patreon backers - https://www.patreon.com/writeopolispodcast , and FREE the Friday afterwards for all. We're incredibly grateful for your financial support, but we will never charge for access to the Writeopolis live show or podcast. Why is Writeopolis? Because writing is a lonely profession, and cons didn't come around often enough even before Covid. Because the best bit of any con is the chat you have at the bar on the Sunday evening. Because we're passionate about every single aspect of writing, and we love to talk about it with fellow misfits.

  • Writeopolis S5 E2 - Joshua Phillip Johnson
    Apr 1 2025

    Our first guest of the season was the brilliant Joshua Phillip Johnson, which, among many other things, give Kit an opportunity to ramble about The Crown, RJ to be unreasonably happy about dinosaurs and Kaiju, and a truly epic entry in The Sandwich Shop Of Dreams. In other words, it's an instant classic. Enjoy :)

  • Writeopolis S5 E1 - Host Only
    Mar 25 2025

    In this host-only first show of 2023, Scott, RJ and Kit attempt a 2022 wrap up, which goes about as well as you'd imagine, with Scott going month by month from the spreadsheet, RJ bouncing about all over the place, and Kit struggling to remember three TV shows he even watched this year. Last year. Yeah, they make that mistake so much they give up completely. For all that there are a ton of laughs, and load of interaction with the chat. It's good to be back :)
