Heads Up on the Podcast

Just a really quick update.

My brothers Steven and Robbie started a podcast last year: the Creator's Playbook.  They took a little break, but either this week or the next (the goal is this Wednesday), they will start posting episodes again.  Some exciting stuff, the official announcement isn't until the end of the month, but my brother Michael and I will be joining the podcast permanently.  We will all be hosts and each episode will be two of us, so we'll be taking turns and mixing it up.

I am announcing this early, just in case there might be those wondering if the podcast may have been abandoned.  It hasn't!!  And episodes will be starting up here really soon.

A month ago I recorded an episode with Steven, but we were trying a new program neither of us completely understood, and there was this echo default setting thing selected.  It messed up the audio a little in parts when we talk over each other.  I haven't heard it, so don't know the extent of how it sounds, but we've decided to post the episode within the next few weeks or so.  It was so much fun to record.  Hopefully we didn't talk over each other too much!!! Heh....

So we're all excited.  We decided to do this podcast fully as siblings last month.  I've got two episodes recording soon that I'm hosting, and the topics are really fun.  Planning for that.  

The podcast I was going to do with Michael is getting put on hold for now.  We've talked that it's something we would like to do, but for now Creator's Playbook is the priority.

We're still learning and growing and developing, and the podcast will get better and better as a result.  Hope you will take a listen when it comes back, or check out what has already been released.

I'm on a 4th Creator's Playbook Podcast Episode: "Save the Cats, Save the World" :0)

"Save the Cats, Save the World" is the name of the 26th episode of the Creator's Playbook, a podcast created by two of my brothers, Robbie and Steven, and this is the 4th episode I've been on.  Steven was on vacation, so this time it was just Robbie and I doing the episode in which we created a story around a time machine.

It was a really fun episode to be on, heh, though I think at times you can hear the wheels turning in our heads.  Being on the Creator's Playbook is always an interesting experience, because I never know what we're going to create.  Honestly it's a little scary!  What if I can't create anything?!  My head was freaking out at times recording this episode!!  And it was quite the journey.  Imagine a boulder racing down a mountain bouncing this way and that, this is what this episode felt like in my head.

Robbie says this was in his top five favorite episodes he's done.  Of course this is in my top five because I've only done four. :P

But we did have a lot of fun.  And I really like where the story ends up!  I wish we got there a little sooner, but I like the ending.

So if you're curious and wish to listen, the Creator's Playbook is on Spotify and other podcasting sites.

Have a great day,
Sarah

(PS: I mentioned in a previous blog post that I'm working on developing a podcast with my brother Michael.  That's moving along, so hopefully it won't be much longer.) 

I'm on a 3rd Podcast Episode: Creator's Playbook, Episode 19, The Vigilante of Vigilantes

Creator's Playbook, which is on Spotify and other platforms, is a podcast my brother's Steven and Robbie created.  It's all about the creative process, and by the end of each podcast they've formed a story idea.

This is the third episode I've been on, the previous episodes being 6 and 12.  What was fun about this episode is that my brother Michael got to be in it as well.  Steven is in the beginning of the episode, but then leaves to help photograph a line of Jewelry my Mom has been working on (the pictures turned out amazing!!), so this episode is mainly Robbie, Michael, and I creating a story.

The episode, The Vigilante of Vigilantes, is all about extraordinary schools.  Originally we were going to make it about Magic Schools, but we broadened it, and we really love what we created by the end.  Before starting each episode none of us know exactly what's going to happen or what we will create.  It's a little nerve wrecking!!  A little crazy, but it's fun seeing what we can create by the end of an episode, and this is the first time I wanted to take what we created and turn it into a full story.

If you love the story creating process, or simply stories in general, give Creator's Playbook a listen. :0)
