Parrish Passages Podcast

hello my little creative creatures. A couple weeks ago, I released a new part of the Inglorious series on Valentine’s Day. It’s a short book with a short episode with the detail about the details.  Thanks for listening and happy Friday :) The Sami Store - https://thesamishow.storenvy.com/ My Inglorious Ink Series! - https://www.amazon.com/stores/Samantha-Parrish/author/B0BNQ2D7D1?ref=ap_rdr&st...

Just like John McClane, I got this just in time for Christmas.  So as a head’s up, I had to record some of this in a different room which is why my voice and the background noise is gonna be uncomfortably noticeable, and as much as I hate it. I would rather it get out there than not pursued.  But with that said, I hope everyone enjoys this lil’ in depth look at the story moments I loved.  Take car...

I’ve teased this episode to death and now it’s finally FINALLY here. Ironically, the day I published the prequel, I was so excited that I made this new book that I recorded this tell-all episode. But after its debut in September 23rd 2023, I felt something was wrong. I read it and nothing seemed right when I first published it. (Not a good feeling to have, but it’s not my first rodeo).  I’ve been...

Fanfictions has taken a fascinating journey over the years. I'm glad it's still a creative outlet, but it took time for it to get to the point that it wasn't the butt of the stereotype joke (well it still is, but in better taste). It still gets to me that I've been reading fanfictions for almost two decades, and they don't get enough credit for being the leading way to a w...

This episode gets personal. After releasing my prequel to Inglorious Ink, I had to stop and have a vibe check with myself. I asked myself, "Am I putting too much of myself? Are there any characters that show my dialect or personality?" I ran into that problem with the redux after cleaning up the story. I have to say, I still put the majority of my life in the book, but it's sprinkle...

Before you get that audible version one day, enjoy the off-the-cuff raw, unplugged reading. Doing the reading was surreal, I felt like I was having an out-of-body experience.

Hey book babes! This has been one hell of a journey to go back in order to move forward with all the hard of work of republishing my first book into three. During the original release and the redux, I've been intrigued with how people have reacted to the plot and the characters. There are three stories in store for you in this tell-all episode about how Inglorious Ink has been interpreted and...

The journey of an author is just like a story, there’s a brave new beginning, hardship, tears, plot twists. But before I get my happy ending an author, I need to have a beginning, and I never had that. Inglorious Ink is my prized achievement, this was something I worked on for two years and now two years later I am giving it a better beginning. Find the story that happened after it was published t...

Hello and welcome to after show notes! I’m hyped for the re-release of Inglorious Ink, my precious characters of chaos will be in a brand new limelight, in this episode you learn all about the tattoo team that has problems with the jobs, each other, and themselves. This is the American Dream Scheme Team, they stop problems from happening, but can’t stop their own problems from happening, but it is...

HEY OPEN ME! I’M NOT A TRAP HA HA I FOOLED YOU. Thank you for listening to this episode, ironically I didn’t think I would be doing an episode about confidence, the one topic that took time for me to get and saw this as a test of my own confidence. Confidence takes time, be your own teacher when it comes to confidence. You know yourself, and what your capable when it comes to your story. Know that...

You’ve discovered the podcast notes! As a movie buff and TV trivia fan, this was a joy to venture into using my drabbles and rambles about these writer characters for an episode. I used to tell my mom, “Oh look Ron Howard or Kevin Bacon made this movie” and my mom would say, “Sami they didn’t make it, they just told people what to do.” After cinema classes and hours of learning of the WHOLE proces...

Hey there! You have reached the info column for more about the show! Today’s episode was a relief; I’ve been itching with anticipation to share something about the second book since I started working on it. I finally got to give some snippets about what’s going on with my scrappy scheming characters in their blue collar crime life.  What is this episode about? I’ll dish the dialogue dirt about wha...

On the way to eight episodes, wow! Thank you for listening to this episode, this one was hard in the production, I think I have a newfound respect for entertainers and creators that can think fast on their feet for material. Working on this show has been a testament to what I can do for adlibbing, it’s funny, as much as I talk to myself, it’s different talking to myself knowing I’m talking to othe...

Hello listeners, welcome to the seventh episode! The people that know me in real life would know that I am CHOCK FULL of major movie knowledge, and when it was time for writing, my style of writing became specialized  for Stephen King it was Maine and Horror, that was his main thing.  For John Grisham it’s lawyers in trouble For me, it's music and movies.  Many creators have their one thing t...

Hello listeners, welcome to the sixth episode! For this episode of the show, we are continuing on with the creation topic by dissecting and analyzing the idea of a villain. The sections for the episode are in order 1.      Ask the question again: What is a villain? 2.      The different types of villains 3.      Character examples of villains 4.      My own villains I’ve created for Inglorious Ink...

Hello listeners, welcome to the fifth episode! Welcome to plot problems 101. Story telling is like a road, there are many confusing routes and many times to get turned around and get lost. This is a different take on the problems of plot points through the story process, I cover everything from taking the plot problems apart by asking yourself questions in regards to the puzzling process of your p...

Hello listeners, welcome to the fourth episode. It is a little obvious that this episode is gravitated more towards the idea of standup comedy then regular comedy, but you can use this information however you see fit. I do apologize for the repetition into some of the segments. As much as I chase down bits and pieces I repeated on accident, some of it had to stay because it was too close to my oth...

Hello listeners, welcome to the third episode, all about the man who makes the macabre manga, Junji Ito. This is going to be a different type of episode with the way it’s presented to make the commentary, about horror and using Junji Ito as examples as opposed to making an episode that was originally going to be about all his works, I opted for a strategic commentary approach.  In the anticipation...

Hello creators! Thank you for listening to this podcast. I don’t know if this will be out at the end of February, but as long as it was as close as possible, then that’s OK with me. February was one frustrating month, so the production for this took longer than I thought.  It’s hard to believe it's been a whole year of being a published author. It has been a journey with my first book; I neve...

Welcome to the first official episode of the Parrish Passages Podcast. We’re starting the show out with a genre analysis; the discussion of dark humor will be the topic. So where did it come from? Why do we like it? What’s the appeal? I’m a writer of this genre and I’ll be revealing how this became the bold bizarre way to present my stories.  Throughout this episode, the sound is a little warbled...

Hello there and welcome to the show! Thank you so much for taking the time to add this to your list of podcasts! Its very obvious that I'm very much a novice to this criteria of entertainment. In time this show will progress to have more of a polished touch to it. The sound is going to fluctuate in highs and lows as I'm still figuring out the program. But other then that aside, I have so...
