Note: This Writers Group episode is more of a diary entry documenting our creative process rather than a well-researched audio essay about a theme or an outlined interview. Transitions may feel jarring or confusing since the priority is consent and privacy over elements of our work. Ā Much of this conversation was omitted to protect details of our writings in progress, but in this conversation we discussed the difference between our need to be witnessed with the need to share our work, self-insert fanfiction/autofiction (why not create a badass baker?), collaborating and collectively imagining, and embracing that our work is but a gnarly finger pointing to the moon. Ā For more reflection, check out the substack post for this episode. Ā (This conversation happened on October 14, 2025, between publishing conversation with Jeanna Kadlec and S5E2) Ā You can find Matt here and here Ā Follow the podcast on Substack or Instagram!
