Romantasy Patriarchal Icks | Nit Writs Episode 27

***SPOILER ALERT!! Spoilers for the Maasverse and the Zodiac Academy Universe!*** In this episode, we discuss our next chapters of our new stories and discuss our icks and pet peeves specifically when it comes to the way we see patriarchal ideas permeating through the romance and romantasy space. This is by no means an exhaustive look at this idea but just more of how we think about and approach it, especially as writers ourselves.  Intro and Outro Music is by Chasing West https://www.instagram.com/chvsingwest/ [https://www.instagram.com/chvsingwest/] http://www.youtube.com/@chasingwest [http://www.youtube.com/@chasingwest]

Write Drunk, Edit Sober | Nit Writs Episode 25

***SPOILER ALERT!! Spoilers for Darkmore (Zodiac Academy spinoff), Maasverse, and Bonded by Thorns!*** In this episode we have a nice little end of semester virtual drink together and do a writing exercise! Sam had lots to say about recently finishing Darkmore and debating what book she should read next and we spend lots of time discussing our writing, etc. We didn’t have a focus for the exercise and really we more just wrote together and then read our work. It was fun and interesting to discuss our stories as always!
