06 - The Struggle is Real
June 11, 2019 00:02 - 11 minutes - 21.5 MBSurprise! We actually managed to get a podcast off this week. Being on vacation in California, I didn't think we'd get a chance. But having a twelve-hour layover in LAX will give you lots of free time! And a great topic for a podcast too! Conflict! We've been fighting the villains of delays and flight cancellations. In every book and movie, there's always a driving conflict. We talk a little bit about them today and even what ones might be missing from my own writing. I hope you enjoy! ...

June 07, 2019 18:49 - 15 minutes - 29.4 MBThe locations we travel to in books are wonderful!

What are some of your favorite fantasy locations? Author Links: RG Long Author Website https://rglongauthor.weebly.com/ RG Long Amazon Autho...

June 03, 2019 03:28 - 15 minutes - 29.4 MBThe struggle bus was real this week when it came to getting the word count in. Between kids finishing up school, getting sick, and general life, I wasn't able to be anywhere near where I wanted to be. But now I've got some goal. Not just goals, but #goals. Anyways, here's hoping some motivations and some rewards will carry me through the week!

03 - Not Bitter but Better!
May 21, 2019 03:34 - 21 minutes - 19.5 MBThis week saw my wife AND I go to the doctor. Well, ARROSTI, which apparently is a really long acronym for "doctor who prescribes stretching and deep tissue massage". A few weeks ago I must have tweaked my back somehow. It was a dull throbbing pain! And I was getting mad that it still hurt. But I finally went to see someone so I could get better. That's a bit about what this episode is about: getting better, not bitter! Check out the episode to hear my fail at naming muscles, hear about h...
02 - My Youth was Spent on Video Games
May 14, 2019 03:26 - 21 minutes - 19.1 MBThis week I really nailed the word count, listened to my wife play video games (which she despises!) and talked with some door to door salesmen.

01 - Botched Book Launches and One Star Reviews
May 07, 2019 03:40 - 17 minutes - 13.7 MBThis week I launched my eleventh book! Hooray! Except it went poorly. Like, sent out the wrong document poorly. And one-star reviews poorly. But since Game of Thrones had a Starbuck's cup on their TV show, I felt a little better about my botched book launch. Tune in to hear my wife read my one-star reviews and get some insight into my writing for the week! It's the first ever episode of the Epic Fantasy Podcast!
