- Smart advice and unusually creative
Sarah and Lindsay put way more work into this than they had to, and that makes this my favorite podcast on how to write audio fiction. They use a deep artistic and literary background to explain good storytelling, plus they explore what makes writing audio drama special.

United States4 years ago Both educational and delightful. Imagine if your high school English teacher paired up with the most hyperactive kid you've ever heard of and the two of them decided to teach a class on audio drama writing. That's ADWIT. Listen, learn, enjoy.
Podchaser54 years agoTimothy DunganThis is a fun to listen to, warm podcast that focuses on writing for audio drama, although it's applicable to all storytelling. Lindsay and Sarah focus on a range of podcasts (& also well-known film plots in general), and on excellent scripts to demonstrate writing done well.
I highly recommend it for people creating audio fiction in particular - and also as a wider guide to constructing stories & dialogue.
Podchaser55 years agoFiona ThrailleTwo episodes in and ADWIT is already at the top of my writing podcasts list. Much like Start With This and Writing Excuses, the chemistry between the hosts keeps this show snappy - but the sheer density of useful writing advice is what sets ADWIT apart. This is likely to be an absolute essential for anyone looking to start their own audiodrama journey, and it's a joy to listen to on top of that!
