Patterns of Running (we mean Writing!)
In this episode we chat about the patterns of our working, how we motivate ourselves to sit down at our desks and stay there, how we understand our own habits in order to get most out of our writing time and really 'go the distance' with our work. Stay tuned for more running analogies!

Be Real
What makes your characters feel real? How do we bring them to life? In this episode we chat about how we attempt to find an essential truth when writing dialogue and portraying characters. We also discuss character flaws, finding nuance in dialogue, varying our tone and adopting we know traits from people we know. Superman also gets a mention, as does the super Sharon Horgan. We hope you enjoy!

In this episode we discuss writing advice. Writing can be inspiring and motivational. But should we listen to all advice from professionals? Does the advice of others ever make you feel like you're doing it wrong? Or make you feel guilty? We're here to say... us too!
