Show Notes

How do you turn a half-formed idea into a story readers feel? Author Charles Barouch joins Alex Simmons and Chris Ryan to reveal the alchemy behind authentic characters and immersive worlds.

🎙 In this episode, we explore:

  • Why every writer “owes the reader” a great story

  • How to avoid “plot-stupid” characters

  • The research method that makes any world believable—even one you’ve never lived in

  • Why giving yourself permission to suck might be the most freeing thing a writer can do

Whether you write mystery, westerns, or sci-fi, this conversation will ignite your creative process and sharpen your storytelling instincts.
