概要

This week on Radio FreeWrite, The Cru takes a step back from writing to talk about... reading.

What should writers be reading? Does it matter if it’s fiction, nonfiction, or even audiobooks? And do audiobooks actually count as reading?

We dig into all of it, including:

  • Why writers need to read widely across genres
  • Considerations of audiobooks and oral storytelling in modern writing
  • How classic works like Frankenstein, Beowulf, and The Iliad still influence storytelling today
  • How and when to use cultural shorthand in fiction
  • That it's ok to quit a book

Along the way, we share what we’ve been reading lately, and how those influences've show up in our own writing.

We do still bring you stories! Tune in around the 17:25 mark.
