  • #118: Jaywalker
    Dec 20 2024

    Have you ever broken the law? Well, you probably have. Actually, I'm not even sure jaywalking is illegal anymore.

    But! Even if you haven't broken the law in real life, have you ever had characters in your stories cross a road they weren't supposed to cross?

    Join The Lotus, Spud, PC, and WebEater for an episode with stories involving calamity, drama, and everything we love about storytelling. And if you get inspired, maybe write a story yourself, and read it out loud to a fellow living, breathing human being.

  • #117: Idunna
    Dec 6 2024

    Idunna is a figure in Norse mythology, the guardian of the golden apples that keep the gods young.

    This episode's got WebEater, Murph, and PC, coming at you with fresh stories and writing discussion! Winter's here, so it's time to get cozy, break out the typewriter (if you're WebEater), computer, or pen, and unleash your imagination. If you write about sunny, tropical places, maybe the cold won't be as bad?

    According to Brewer's, a Triumvir was one of a group of three men acting as joint magistrates for some special purpose. Caesar, Pompey, and Crassus made the First Triumvirate, while Octavian, Antony, and Lepidus made the Second Triumvirate.

  • Minizode #5: Why Do People Write?
    Nov 18 2024

    Hello! In this Minizode, Krispy and Murph discuss the various reasons people find for writing. How was writing developed, and originally used? From passion, to fame and fortune, what drives people to put words on the page (or screen)? What motivates us at Radio Freewrite as writers? How about famous writers throughout history?

    We hope you have a wonderful week, with some good writing and reading throughout it!

    A zucchetto is a kind of skullcap worn by clerics.

  • #114: Cleveland Museum of Art
    Oct 26 2024

    This week the Cru had a special prompt. We wandered the halls of the Cleveland Museum of Art, seeking inspiration, and all picked different artworks to inspire our writing. Art is it's own world: listen for mysterious galleries, goblins, bad relationships, and sonnets!

    And, if you get a chance, try this exercise yourself. The CMA is free, or find your nearest museum, and, with an open mind, search for something to inspire your writing!
