117: Idunna – Writing Rituals, Music, & Getting into the Zone
NaNoWriMo was in full swing, so we got nerdy about writing habits: Alexander Litvinovsky soundtracks, video game music for fight scenes, and how misheard lyrics sometimes better than the actual line. We also debated tropes, predictability, and how much surprise a story actually needs.
This episode's got WebEater, Murph, and PC, coming at you with fresh stories and writing discussion! Winter's here, so it's time to get cozy, break out the typewriter (if you're WebEater), computer, or pen, and unleash your imagination. If you write about sunny, tropical places, maybe the cold won't be as bad?
Then we read first‑draft stories for Idunna, Norse goddess of youth and magic apples, because those apples are starting to look mighty fine as the years tick on.
