Drunken Pen Writing Podcast

#14: The Hemingway Effect: How To Create A Perfect Author Persona

In this episode, we discuss how to create an author persona that'll get people interested in you and your work. We also give examples of various famous writers such as Ernest Hemingway, Hunter S. Thompson, Kurt Vonnegut, and Stephen King who were as famous—if not more so—for their author personas as their work. And it wouldn't be a DPW episode if we didn't get into some strange topics and random rants.

#13: Book Of The Month And Work Rants

In this eventful episode, we choose our first DPW book of the month. We pick between five awesome books submitted to us by our Twitter followers and decide which one we'll read and review as our first ever book of the month. After all that, we go into some personal business by ranting about the awful parts of our day jobs. That's right. We have crappy day jobs just like everyone else.

DBS #4: Great Fictional Drunks And Awesome Irish Writers

In what is essentially part two of our drunken St. Paddy's day episode, we continue the drunken buffoonery as we discuss the greatest fictional drunks in literature. Then we try to straighten things out by going over some of the best Irish authors and the work you should read from them. Though, things go sideways quite a few times in this one.

#12: A Toast To The Drunkest Authors Of The 20th Century

We kick off St. Patrick's Day 2019 with a special episode. As we slowly grow more inebriated, we discuss the authors who have been labeled the greatest drunks in 20th-century literature. Of course, it wouldn't be a true DPW drunken episode without some impromptu mayhem. And as we near the end of the episode, we hold a hilarious reading of one of James Joyce's raunchiest love letters.

#11: Three Reasons Why Your Work Isn’t Getting Out Of The Slush Pile

We give you a break down of the quickest ways to get your work out of the slush pile and into print. Then things deteriorate as we get drunker and find ourselves sidetracked by acting out what Billy Bob Thorton from his role in Sling Blade would be like in a sex scene. Finally, we end things on a better note with some movie talk.

DBS #3: Making Fun Of Twilight And Other Drunken Shenanigans.

In this Drunken Bullshit episode, we read and make fun of 15 awful excerpts from the Twilight series. Which proved more difficult than we thought due to just how terrible they were. Then we go into a bunch of drunken nonsense including our opinions on the sequel to Space Jam starring LeBron James, the dog version of John Wick, and try to figure out why the dog keeps yelling at us.

#10: Scenes In Fiction That Make Us Sick! Part One

In this week's episode we go over the scenes in popular fiction that make us sick. We also discuss why throwing in unnecessary scenes of sex, gore, or violence can ruin an otherwise good story. Since we can talk all day about gross scenes in books, TV, and movies, we decided this would be a part one of two.

#9: Hookers, Stephen King, Nipples, And Comic Book Talk

This episode was originally recorded in early 2018. We kick things off by brainstorming some ideas for a story about a murderous, evil, ghost hooker! Then we get into some Stephen King talk, go into the double standards of male versus female nudity in the entertainment world, then end things by going over our current (at the time) reading lists.

DBS #2: Transvestites, Booze, And Writing

In this Drunken Bullshit episode, we hit the bottle hard and get into some weird topics—starting with our reasons why the word transvesite sounds offensive. Then we manage to right the ship long enough to get some writing talk in before sinking straight back into a sea of depravity.
