Episode 4 - Fail Your Way to Your Voice

This episode explores how failing to be your favourite writer can help you find your own voice, how failure and dislike can become creative fuel, and the choices between writing standalones or series through worldbuilding. We also discuss reworking a space-opera spin-off (using the Obi-Wan/Reva example) and how critiquing existing stories can spark new ideas.

Examples, anecdotes and practical thoughts are used throughout, and in the next part we’ll move on to tabletop RPG inspiration, character sheets, book weight, and representation in magic systems.
