Cavan Scott has written… well… just about every type of story there is to write. Audio plays for Dr. Who, Blake 7, Iris Wildthyme and more… fiction for Dr. Who, Skylanders, WarHammer 40K, and more… paranormal YA like “The Hunted“, and non-fiction like sourcebooks for (not to be redundant, but) Dr. Who, Skylanders, Angry Birds, and yes… even more. His range of genre and format, story and character, is a rich nuanced storyteller’s tapestry so you KNOW we’re going to be laying out a feast of writerly goodness on this episode.

Joining me in the co-host’s chair is the sharp and savvy Terry Mixon – author of “Empire of Bones” and “Veil of Shadows” and co-host on the fabulous Dead Robots’ Society podcast – and together we burn through 20(ish) minutes of writerly discourse with Cavan, exploring the reasons why he writes, the distinctions between narrative formats, the key to mastering a character’s “voice” and more. This is classic RTP goodness fraught with fabulosity… hit that “PLAY” button, friends, and let’s get into it! (and you do NOT want to miss Cavan’s Workshop Episode).

Workshop Episode 99 (Guest Host: J. Robert King)

J. Robert King – author of Guild Wars: Edge of Destiny, the Mad Merlin series, and Hellmaw: Incubus Tweets – returns to the Big Chair at the Roundtable to lend his considerable storytelling mojo to brainstorming a scifi tale of humanity on the brink of interstellar expansion and a tormented man who has the potential to save it from a dark conspiracy or bring it all crashing down.

Our Guest Writer, Terry Mixon is a repeat offender… er… has appeared in the Guest Writer chair before and this time he brings us a tale of extreme future sports in a solar system where warp drive is possible, but strictly controlled, and dark violent forces are arrayed to seize power for their own ends. With Serving World’s John Mierau returning to the co-host chair, we strap in for from the jump to Awesome Space and havest asteroids loaded with Literary Goal. It’s a heck of a haul… you can get some for yourself by clicking that play button! (and if you want even more writerly goodness, check out Rob’s fabulous 20 Minutes With… episode!)
