First Cup of Coffee - May 24, 2019

Talking a bit about stories today - romance, SFF, mystery and horror - and how they're structured. This segues into a discussion of the horror structure (new to me and learned at Nebula Conference), Breaking Bad and its series finale, with a final (spoilers cued) discussion of What Went Wrong with the Game of Thrones finale in that context. 

After this, I'll try not to talk about Game of Thrones anymore. The blog post on burnout that I reference is here: https://blog.jeffekennedy.com/2019/05/22/how-to-recognize-and-maybe-avoid-burnout/
