Bad Lit Friends is a writing podcast that barely knows what it's doing. And that’s the point. Hosted by fiction writers Meagan Thompson-Mann and Kirk Rafferty, this show is equal parts craft discussion, existential despair, ego massage, and wildly unsolicited hot takes. Each episode blends honest conversations about the creative process, the publishing industry, and the messiness of trying to create highfalutin art, with hot-and-occasionally-right takes, and a dash of internet drama. If you've ever felt like you're writing into the void, you're not alone — grab a seat, bring your worst draft.

Querying for the Terribly Nervous Part 2: The Synopsis (S01E07)

Summary


In this episode of Bad Lit Friends, we discuss arguably the most challenging part of your query package, the synopses.

We share personal updates on our writing progress, delve into the structure of a synopsis, and explore common pitfalls.

In our "hot gos" segment, we talk more about the Anthropic settlement, the future of publishing, and the impact of fan fiction on the traditional publishing market.

Welcome to Bad Lit Friends. We’re glad you’re here, even if none of us know what we’re doing.


Bad Lit Friends was created and is hosted by Meagan Thompson-Mann and Kirk Rafferty. Our Producer is Rylan Rafferty.
