Freaking great episode! I love Chuck and find his advice, humor and all around “good dude” nature to be a balm for my anxiety for writing.
Can’t wait for the next episode!
Glad you enjoyed the episode, Scotty! Chuck really is such a humble guy, and you’re gonna love next week’s episode too.
Me too! I also appreciate that Chuck can go from “Harden the fuck up care bear” to “Be gentle with yourself”.
@@FanFiAddict I can't wait! Also, I would love the chance to hear an interview with Jeff VanderMeer , if it is possible. I am digging through The Wonder Book, which is such an interesting resource for writers. Thanks for the reply and all you do!
@@adrianmgibsonauthor Absolutely! That is the kind of advice that works for me too. A little mix of hard and soft nudges.
What an amazing channel. The insta algorithm actually worked and showed me a wild Wendig clip from this and brought me here. Wanderers has been been on my TBR for too long, Chuck's advice is exactly my kind of thing, and he's hilarious. You were excellent, charismatic hosts. Can't wait for part two, and now i have a whole heckin chonk of back catalogue to consume. Thank you!
Cheers, Luke!
This was a wonderful discussion. Thank you.
I love your work. I was first introduced to your writing through Star Wars. I love your Aftermath Trilogy. I love all the things that you worked on in that story. Thank you for making it...and it NOW resides there...and no one can take it away. Also, as the years progress...I believe it works even better. Thank you.
I then...a long time down the road ...I picked up A Book of Accidents...and loved it.
Then binged the Zer0es duology...loving it, too.
So...I'm a fan. Thank you for wriiting these stories that now live in my imagination.
I bought Wanderers, but haven't read it. I am now ready to read it. Thank you.
Thank you so much for watching, and for the kind words for Chuck! We will pass this on to him to make sure he sees it :)
@@FanFiAddict - Oh, thanks.
I knew he had to be someone with a sense of humour. I thoroughly enjoyed this conversation.
Writing is such a solitary endeavor, like reading is (for the most part), but this channel (and others like it) are changing that.
I'm loving this channel, a lot. Thanks.
@@grafffuller3265 that means a lot to us, Graff, really. Even though we’re a small channel, we’re very passionate about reading and writing. To get comments like this makes it all worth it.
