WriterDojo S4 Ep10: Profanity

March 15, 2023 Jack Wylder 9 Comments

Since man first stubbed his bare toe on a rock, profanity has been with us. Profanity has evolved and grown over time like all language, but it’s certainly nothing new. Hosts/Authors Steve Diamond and Larry Correia discuss this topic in depth. When is profanity acceptable and when is it not acceptable? How much is too much? Most importantly, why is ‘cussing like a sailor’ not that impressive? All this and more on this week’s episode of the WriterDojo

With Larry having done dozens of interviews in the last month alone and Steve interviewing SO many people over the years, it makes sense to cover this subject. WriterDojo hosts/Authors Steve Diamond and Larry Correia talk this week about interviewing and being interviewed.

WriterDojo S4 Ep6: Monsters (Round 3)

February 15, 2023 Jack Wylder 12 Comments

WriterDojo hosts/Authors Steve Diamond and Larry Correia just cannot get enough monsters! So the discussion continues this week with some tips for how, when, and why to create your own monsters (just in writing- sorry, Steve)

This week’s episode is sponsored by Herman Hunter’s new release the Wizard’s Stone

Odo didn’t know what was in store for him when the wizard called him into his study. The wizard gave him a simple task–deliver a stone, wrapped, sealed, and warded to a king halfway across the world. And to this end, Odo will be protected by a band of skilled mercenaries, paid a staggering fortune in gold.
Yet, the outside world is not as certain or safe as that of the wizard’s compound. A fact that Odo will learn, much to his horror and regret.
