Show Notes

After progress updates on our writing – Aaron finished his novel manuscript! Naomi had two items of writing-related good news this week! – we get real about the writing process. We reflect on how you have to wait forever for everything in the publishing business, and the frustrations of continually seeking external validation. Then we discuss a pet theory Aaron is working on, which considers the writing life as a faith-based activity, at least occassionally. Does writing, especially when it seems no one else cares, rely on a belief that stories have some kind of transcendental value, that you're writing them in service of something larger than yourself? Is it wrong to call this a spiritual or religious impulse? Maybe we're getting a little too big for our britches here. It's just a half-baked notion, but airing half-baked notions is what podcasts are for. Enjoy!
