About the Podcast
Hobbies Include: Writing is a creative fiction podcast, with a story that is still growing and not yet set in stone. The episodes or chapters that you experience here are part of a long form fiction audio novel. This is not a polished, heavily edited, published story converted into audio.
The stories here are in the process of being written. Each chapter is a raw creation with only minor editing, read aloud for you by the author. In addition, the podcast includes special episodes and segments where the author will discuss the story, her writing process, and answer audience questions, as well as special one-shot episodes featuring the characters' lives outside of the main plot line.

About the Author
Hi, I'm Mariah Powell, amateur author and creator of this podcast. I've been writing fiction since I learned to string sentences together, and this is my first go-round presenting my work to the public at large.
My vision for this podcast is not to simply write a book, record it and release it to the wolves - that would be too easy.
Hobbies Include: Writing creates a discussion between you (the audience) and me (the writer) about each chapter, line and character in the story. That discussion has the power not only to challenge me as the writer, but to shape the story itself. To make it better.

About You
That is what I am asking you to do as you experience this story: help me make it better.
Challenge me, argue with me, question my writing style and my decisions. Point out plot holes when you see them. Even better, point out bigger flaws like unintentional racism, sexism, etc. If you see an issue, shine a flashlight on it.
This is a collaborative effort, and I'm counting on you.
