Season 1, Episode 13

Story Time #3

This week we’re back with a Storytime episode! Kayla shares a whirlwind night at a Mountain View writers group (hello, kindred spirits), then we dive into short pieces we wrote in under 2 hours

We’re also featuring two terrific listener pieces:

“Fairytale in Bangkok” by Scott Gibson — a tender, whiskey-soaked poem about young love. Scott is currently working on a documentary where he interviews the longstanding, bona fide punk artists of Indonesia. 

“Elon” by MJ — a sharp, slam-poetry critique.

Stick around as we set goals and swap contest plans.This week we’re back with a Storytime episode—vulnerable, messy, and so much fun. Kayla shares a whirlwind night at a Mountain View writers group (hello, kindred spirits), then we dive into fresh, two-hour, barely-edited short pieces sparked by Instagram prompt threads (enemies-to-lovers, angry confessions, and injury/sickness lines like “Get behind me” and “Tell me where it hurts”). Expect AI dread, cheeky gallows humor, and a very smirky maybe-hero named Jared.

We’re also featuring two terrific listener pieces:

“Fairytale in Bangkok” by Scott Gibson — a tender, whiskey-soaked poem about love, visas, and the kind of dancing that ignores dignity and keeps going.

“Elon” by MJ — a sharp, slam-poetry critique that rockets from Teslas to Mars with wit to spare.
