Well, we're closing in on the end of the year, so we figured it would be a good idea to discuss our writing successes and failures for the awful year of 2020. We spend most of our time talking about our 2021 writing goals and the different things we'd liked to do, such as traveling and hopefully going back to conventions.

We start off talking about manscaping and other nonsense, but things really pick up when we get into a long talk about things that will drastically improve your writing in a short period of time. Some of the things we talk about are why metaphors are better than similes, how to structure your paragraphs for optimal pacing, and the importance of using active voice instead of passive voice.

WARNING: This episode is very NSFW!
We open the episode lamenting the length of the US presidential election. Then we discuss ten of the weirdest erotica sub-genres on the market today. After that... well, we have a way-too-long talk about poop porn. So, maybe don't let the kids listen to this one.

We open up the episode with a quick conversation about what novels we're going to read now that we're done with Dracula. Then we get into a much longer discussion about our future writing projects and the idea of tackling a full-length novel.
And to finish things off, we talk a bit about our personal writing styles and what types of novels we would be best suited to write.

We're joined by Ashleigh Hatter as we attempt to discuss chapters 15-20 of Bram Stoker's Dracula. We do stay on topic for ten minutes or so, but not much happened in these chapters. So we partake in a good amount of nonsense throughout the episode.
We also talk about one of the funniest submissions we've received this year.
