Head to Head

Fiction EN ↓ 12 episodes

An experimental anthology series, where writers Justin Church, Joe Morin, and guests challenge themselves to better their storytelling. The participants use a shared writing prompt, then get one month to write short stories based upon that prompt. Finally, the writers and narrators self-analyze their work, constructively criticize their peers' stories and narration presentation, and figure out how they can all do better on the next one.
