And that's a wrap for 2023, folx! Chris and Lore are going on hiatus with some talk of spooky stories, smelly ancestors, five minutes of actual topic, and a whole lot of cracking themselves up. Join us wherever social media is to be had, and we
Are you a ~spicy~ author or hoping to be one?  Lucky for you, Christopher has been writing explicit fiction since every fanficcer had their own geocities site.  Lore's new to the craft but she's been reading it long enough to have a few pointer
Beta readers, fantasy words, the over-taking of YA and more. Join us as we discuss some infamous Hot Takes in the writing world.  Make sure to check us out on Instagram @unrelatedbutpodcast and tumblr @unrelatedbutartwork by jickdraws
Struggle along with Christopher and Lore as they desperately try to stay on topic.  After an amusing aside about the rating system of "spicy" scenes and a leisurely walk down memory lane, they finally arrive at the topic of the episode: favorit
No matter how hard we might try to avoid it, there comes a point in every story where you simply have to do the worldbuilding.  Join us as we map out the basics about the monarchy, the landscape and the general attitude of the people of Aoirlaa
*SPOILER WARNING* If you have not seen Season 2, and have managed not to be spoiled, please note this is very very spoiler-y.It's been weeks now since Season 2 of Good Omens hit our screens and provoked..well, if we're honest, damn near the ent
Settle in for a longer than normal episode as Christopher and Lore discuss how to create conflicts that work for your characters and theme.  Watch them (very, very bravely) read their character studies out loud for the first time.As always if y
Naming characters is either the easiest or one of the hardest aspects of starting a story.  Forget all the world building and plot development, just coming up with the right name for your new OC can feel both terribly exciting and terribly over
Thoughts on the WGA Strike (#HoldTheLine), the industry's irresponsible use of funds and manpower, AI(it's trash, we do not support), and much more. Featuring Lore's angry rummaging and Christopher's food metaphors. Catch up with us on what's g
Hey there guys!  Guess who's back?  It's us, obviously, Christopher and Lore.  We're starting season two off with a new feature and a new project: we're writing a novel!  Since writing is one of those things that is best taught by doing, we tho
An (oddly subdued) conversation about the necessity of exploring all types of human relationships in writing. Featuring a segue about how much Chris and Lore made themselves hate Wyatt Earp (oops), another mini rant about 'She' (also known as N
In their usual fashion, Chris and Lore *attempt* to talk about a very common idea in the writing world and inevitably end up rambling on about Sheen and Tennant like the absolutely shameless fic writers they are. There is, miraculously, some ac
Join as we discuss the validity of the term Mary Sue and what exactly a wish-fulfilling or self insert character entails.  Absolutely filled to the brim with pop culture references (Supernatural, Star Trek, Harry Potter) because one of us simpl
Plots can't move if the writer isn't making decisions (and sticking to them). Christopher has her own novel-length ideas about this and Lore is just here for the LOLs.Interact with us!Twitter (Lore): https://twitter.com/UnrelatedBut_Tumblr (Chr
Maybe it was the topic, the lateness of the hour or the unbelievably taxing week we just survived but recording this episode brought out a bit more opinionated chaos than our previous installments.  The randomizer chose 'Magic Systems and how t
Love it or hate it, the thesaurus is in every writer's toolbox. It's knowing how and when to use it that's the trick (and we all know we're at least 58% bullshitting our way through figuring that out).Join Chris and Lore as they discuss the dub
The randomizer picked a good one this week: live reading posts we found under the writing tags on tumblr (the only social media Christopher understands) and Twitter.  Tune in to hear a well thought out, totally on point, absolutely never distra
This go around Chris and Lore talk about writing communities and how to avoid the muddy waters of the dreaded Group Think, how to navigate what kind of critique is right for you, and how super incredibly rude it was for Zoom to cut them off at
Join us as Christopher and Lore dive into that age old question of what comes first your plot or your character.  While we start out 100% convinced that it's always going to be character we sidetrack ourselves with exceptions and an inevitable
Next Up! An episode about World Building rapidly dissolves into chaos when Chris and Lore's take on the subject turns into the horrors and boons of exposition and how it affects the story. As they always manage to stay off-topic (and will inevi
Welcome to the podcast!  In this inaugural episode we completely ignore the whims of the randomizer (you'll see why) in favor of an easy topic: Do writers need to read?  Well, Christopher seems to think there's definitely only one answer and ca
