Join the plague house as Vicky and Joe discuss Covid (she has it), retelling the Greek myths from a woman's point of view, and 10 wonderful pieces of writing advice from Vicky's favourite ever author, Terry Pratchett. You'll also get a short side-quest on whirlpools, near-death experiences, and George Orwell, which is relevant. Honest.

Key Takeaways:

[1:30] Vicky has COVID and it's a lot of frowny faces in the Dingle right now.

[3:15] Vicky is a terrible sick person. She hates just loafing about on the couch.

[10:15] It's so important to read diverse books because you get a better understanding of your fellow humans.

[12:00] Terry Pratchett is one of Vicky's favorite authors.

[15:45] It might be difficult, but there are a lot of benefits to listening to someone who has an opposing opinion than you.

[19:45] Read everything that you think is going to be interesting.

[22:10] Don't be afraid to submit your writing online!

[25:00] Stand for something and do it out loud.

[29:20] Debate is a very important part of learning about the other person's side.

[32:45] You should definitely go off and read some Terry Pratchett books!
