I'm always seeing this sentiment of "I have got to make my art weirder" or people begging for weirder art but here's the thing, Weird is not a brand. You cannot rack your brains trying to figure out the "Weird" formula. You don't get weird art by artificially forcing whatever you think is "weird." You get weird art (and I think "weird" is sometimes people groping for a way of saying non-corporatized) by figuring out what you like, deep down, even (especially) if you think it's embarrassing and wallowing in it like a pig

RSL Progress Update!

Season 1:

We have two episodes ready to go, but we're trying to create a buffer of at least four before we start releasing. Ani E and James are making some incredible stuff that I can't wait to bring to your ears. The hard deadline we've made for ourselves for the first episode is September 18, but if we're ready sooner you'll hear it sooner!

Voice work is done for two-thirds of Season 1, and we'll soon be scheduling the last set of recording sessions. Chloe and Eva are doing a wonderful job bringing the best performances out of our amazing VAs.

Season 2:

Writers are brainstorming. Storming up some brains. Cooking up some good food for your ears.

Patreon Content:

We've brought on a new member of our crew: the illustrious Jason Foley (creator of Playing with Form), to help our sound team with various technical tasks, as well as to help manage the patreon and ensure we get good bonus content for our supporters! Very exciting!

Personal Note:

Ani Rey and I have a big move coming up. This may explain why this blog hasn't been terribly active lately, and I apologize in advance that it may be even less active for a little while. But I'm so thankful that we have such a competent and hard-working production team to keep the momentum going!

It may be "just" a fun passion project, but that doesn't mean RSL isn't work, and I often think fondly on the many hours that have gone into making it a work of art surpassing my wildest aspirations at its conception.

Stay tuned for more!

Keep cozy out there, and we'll see you after the end of the world.

PODCAST RECS WANTED:

trying to get my mom into audio drama! she has never listened to one before and is requesting something "quirky and sweet, feel-good, but not over-the-top syrupy". she would not enjoy anything creepy.

[groundivy]

podcast season one: this is found audio! everything you hear is recorded by the characters themselves!

podcast season two: okay technically it wouldn't make sense for them to record that part, but maybe it was on accident? or the tape turned itself on?

podcast season three: this entire episode is inside the character's head

been stewing on an analytical approach to fiction which I call "is this book afraid of me?" and in order to answer this question you determine how hard the book is trying to make sure you don't come after the writer on twitter

Please keep making art. Please make it for yourself. Please don’t let everything become even more of the same flat general appeal nonsense that doesn’t seem to have anything to say

actually my best performing tumblr post is not the most reblogged one but is in fact the one about a very niche audio drama, which successfully reached the entirety of my target audience: the three other people who know what this podcast is
