The Creator's Playbook Podcast, Episode 87: "Soul Bleeding" Dystopias

The Creator's Playbook 

Episode 87: "Soul Bleeding" Dystopias

Hosts: My bros Michael and Robbie

"Cold and dark days have come to The Creators Playbook here in episode "Soul Bleeding" where Robbie and Michael delve into the backdrop of dystopian societies. You, Great Author, have a choice before you in how your characters are going to live through an oppressive regime! Will they be triumphant and conquer in majesty? Or will your society crush them? Join us as we delve into this wonderfully awful business of making our characters' lives terrible as we create a dystopia, and place our characters in it to live, thrive, or die."

It seems like dystopias are all the rage, and have been for sometime.  Something I've never quite understood, as they're depressing at times, but I've gotten caught up in the Hunger Games with reading and watching the series and other dystopias as well.  Michael and Robbie have some fun with this topic, and the episode is an interesting listen.  Michael, that opening is pretty slick.

Creator's Podcast is about, simply, creativity.  Taking different ideas and genres, playing around with tropes and the like, and finishing off by creating a new story. You can find the podcast on Spotify, Apple, etc.

Have a great week!
