This week’s WriterDojo Steve and I talk about world building and creating settings for your story. You’ll notice that Producer Jack has been temporarily replaced with Robot Voice, because he got Covid, and couldn’t really talk much when he put it together.

And YouTube and Rumble are coming, but Producer Jack’s down with the sickness, so I’m not gonna bug him about it!

A lost colony planet, a perplexing murder, and a dogged homicide cop in this Audible Original story from best-selling author Larry Correia. Narrated by Oliver Wyman.

When the biggest colony ship in human history was sent to settle a paradise world, an accident hurtled it deep into uncharted space. A thousand light years from Earth, with no way home and no way to call for help, the colonists’ only hope for survival was the one barely habitable planet in range, a nightmare world they named Croatoan. Landing on the only five mountain peaks tall enough to rise above the lethal acid clouds, the settlers carved a civilization from the rock.  

A hundred years later, Five Points has grown into a city of corruption and violence. With powerful corporations ruling the surface domes and criminal syndicates running the caverns below, murder is just the cost of doing business.

So when a Special Magistrate is found dissolving in a protein vat, it barely registers – until DCI Lutero Cade, the last honest cop in Five Points, catches the case. What he finds could threaten the colony’s very existence.   

Or, at the very least, Cade himself.

This comes out 10-21 and can be downloaded for free for Audible members. I really enjoyed this one.

Series 3 Challenge Coins are available until this Sunday: https://mhiswag.myshopify.com/

Part of the process in doing coins is after the molds are done, they test them by striking coins out of a different metal to make sure the molds are correct before using the more expensive metals and doing all of the inlay magic.

Hey everybody- Jack Wylder here to announce that the swag shop is now open again! https://mhiswag.myshopify.com/
The Series III Challenge Coins are up there along with new Team HooDoo swag (& a bunch of other stuff)

EDIT (it would help if the professional author could spell villains right in the title)

For this episode Steve and I keep talking about how to write characters, by getting into how we create heroes and villains. Make them believable people, make them entertaining, and make your story not suck!

If you would like to support the podcast with a small monthly donation you can do it at Anchor: https://anchor.fm/writerdojo . Later in the season we will be doing some Q&A episodes using questions from our backers. (we were supposed to record some of those Monday, except I got stuck in traffic behind a flipped semi truck full of hay bales). EDIT – and I’m supposed to add that backers also get early access to the store whenever it opens.
