How To Write The Future

“I recommend doing is getting with some friends, going to a cafe or maybe even, I know some people, they take the train, and they go not too far outside of where they live, and they may get a hotel somewhere and write creatively. If you don't have the money to do that, just maybe go somewhere that you don't normally go that's a good place to write, and that may can help stimulate some creativity.” - Jenée DardenIn this How To Write the Future podcast episode titled “Juggling Creative Projects, Live from World Fantasy Con” host Beth Barany records this special episode from the recent World Fantasy Convention and discusses with guests how they juggle multiple creative projects.Guests include author Valerie Estelle Frankel, fan fiction writer Erica Frank and journalist and radio presenter Jenée Darden.
