#325. Stuff & Nonsense
You asked, we delivered! It's a no-prep, pure-fun, throwaway episode in which Craig, Ryan, and Todd sit down and talk about ... well, nothing really. They give a glimpse into the trivia they did at Salt Lake FanX this year, they talk about what they've been watching lately, and what they'll be reading in the near future. Enjoy...I guess?

What Makes Prose Good? | Part 2: Defining Prose
What makes for good prose? In this episode, to better try to answer that question, Craig dives into just what the definition of prose should be. Is it simply "not poetry"? Or does is go deeper than that? With a little help from the Oxford Book of English Prose, we're going to work our way toward a common definition of what prose actually is.

Why (and How) Should Stories End? w/ Brent Weeks
SPOILER ALERT. We talk about the ending of Harry Potter, but that's over a decade old. So maybe this note is unnecessary. But you have it anyway.
Brent Weeks knows a thing or two about ending a story. So when Craig wanted to do an episode all about endings -- why must stories end? what makes a good ending? do authors owe readers an ending? -- it was a pretty easy call to ask Brent to join in.
Check out Brent's talk, "On Ending Well"
