À propos de ce contenu audio

 It's a novel that's a podcast that's an audio drama that's a mess that's a novel that's a podcast that's an audio drama that's a hoot! SERIES 1 Salvaging a terrible novel has never been so difficult. It all started with aliens invading after the First World War. But that was never enough. The novel became more surreal, less conventional. And publishers rejected it. That was 20 years ago. Many years later, the writer, Daniel's Nemesis, returned to his debut fiction to see what could be done with it. This podcast series is the story of one writer, trying to dissect his 20-year old novel, chapter by chapter, but being hindered by his former self who is there to defend it. From bumpy beginnings, this podcast series flourishes into a surreal drama of how one should express themself. The internal conflict any writer has as to what part of their work is actually good, and what needs to go. And that fear of never being able to reproduce a quality of writing that seemed to have come out of nowhere. SERIES 2 Our Host has actually written a decent book this time. Okay, so it's draft 1.5 and still not published, but it's just needing some polish. It has a comprehensible narrative at least, and some kind of story that develops. It's also borrowed quite heavily from German Expressionist films and Japanese horror movies from the turn of the century. But our Host is proud of this one, and that's the important thing. As always, though, it's not a Daniel's Nemesis Podcast until Daniel's has a Nemesis. This time, it's his main character developing himself outside of the book, gaining popularity and success at an incredible rate as the Host is left floundering. And he has some difficult soul-searching to do. If only there were someone to hold up a mirror for him ...Daniel's Nemesis, 2016 - 2023 © Art

      XBook Chapter 0 - Synopsis
      Jan 27 2016

      A new series in which each week I read a chapter from a novel I wrote as a teenager 15 years ago, and afterwards talk about it to see how little I have changed since then. This is a story of an alien invasion taking place on Earth directly after the First World War, a mix of Blackadder Goes Forth, Independence Day, and Un Chien Andalou. Yes, those natural bedfellows. And as you can imagine, this was not a novel that was published. Here, I present the awfulness of this novel for your amusement, and you can think of it as a How To NOT write a book.

      Today, we just look at the synopsis, with a bit more detail surrounding the creation Assterwork, and will jump into the first chapter in the next episode.

      Please like and comment. I would very much like your support in improving this podcast, but maybe don't recommend this to your friends just yet....

    • XBook Chapter 1 - So Might It Be...

      XBook Chapter 1 - So Might It Be...
      Jan 30 2016

      The first chapter of XBook, which is really more of a prologue, and a very long-winded one like that. You can hear my thoughts about it after the chapter has been read. You can also hear just how harsh publishers can be in a rejection slip I received from one publisher that was a bit crushing at the time.

    • XBook Chapter 2 - The Story, According to Ginger Part One

      XBook Chapter 2 - The Story, According to Ginger Part One
      Jan 31 2016

      Chapter 2, and we finally get to meet one of our central characters! This time, it's Ginger, and he is trying to get some leave from the British armed forces. Riveting stuff, I know, but we do at least get to see some of the mechanics of how Ginger thinks and acts. And he talks to some people as well. What more can I do to hook you in?

      After I read the chapter, I shall then dissect it, and start to bring out some psychobabble as well.
