Yesterday, we talked about words that we didn't like to use. Each writer has words he dislikes, but sometimes those words are exactly what is needed. As writers, it can also be tempting to use words that mean a very specific thing. Now, I am not oppo... more
Some words sound gross (gross!). Some words are annoying. They don't roll off the tongue. They are overused, etc. . . There are a lot of reasons why a writer might want to disregard some words. Some of these reasons are better than others. In this ep... more

Just found this and like his take on the creative process..so far. But a huge red flag was just raised in the “Six Month” episode.

All creatives have something to gain from listening to this podcast. Dan's takes on creativity, philosophical ideas, and art are thought-provoking and intelligent, whether you agree with them or not. Highly recommended not only for writers, but also artists, musicians, and other creators/creative people.
Dan does a great job on the podcast. Not only does he have a great podcasting voice, but he also talks about topics you won’t hear anywhere else!
Dan does a wonderful job laying out human nature while subtly incorporating humor. Love the premise of this podcast and look forward to more!!
