The marketing for this film highlights Judi Dench, but she's barely in it at all. As fans of hers, Melanie and I were disappointed. The movie is ok but it wasn't what we expected and that soured our experience of the story. Melanie still did a study of female archetypes and I still studied setups and payoffs, but the real lesson this week is what happens when a story doesn't meet audience (or reader) expectations. -V."Female characters don't have to be based on female archetypes, and vice versa for male archetypes and male characters." - Melanie Hill REGISTER FOR THE 2024 SPRING WEBINAR SERIESFor access to writing templates and worksheets, and more than 70 hours of training (all for free), subscribe to Valerie's Inner Circle.To learn to read like a writer, visit Melanie's website.Follow Valerie on X, Instagram and Threads @valerie_francisFollow Melanie on X, Instagram and Facebook @MelanieHillAuthor

Does the nickname "baby" bother us? Why yes, yes it does. But we've got to admit, Dirty Dancing is an excellent example of the heroine's journey, as well as female archetypes and how women are presented in stories. It also happens to be, structurally, an excellent film. It's not a complex story, but it's well-told. -V."In the first half of your story, you're planting seeds that will bear fruit in the second half of your story." - Valerie FrancisRelated Story Nerd EpisodesBeginnings and Endings (Season 3) REGISTER FOR THE 2024 SPRING WEBINAR SERIESFor access to writing templates and worksheets, and more than 70 hours of training (all for free), subscribe to Valerie's Inner Circle.To learn to read like a writer, visit Melanie's website.Follow Valerie on X, Instagram and Threads @valerie_francisFollow Melanie on X, Instagram and Facebook @MelanieHillAuthor

Readers are on a need to know basis. That means that, as storytellers, we only tell them what they need to know, and only when they need to know it. In this adaptation of John le Carre's novel, the filmmakers could have told us everything we needed to know about Issa in the first few minutes. Instead, they sprinkled the details a little bit at a time, and as a result, the audience's curiosity goes into overdrive.Melanie and I still think the book is better (shocker, right?), but this is a great episode to discover how to control the flow of information in a story. -V"It's really tempting to say that, 'Well, I have to start my novel or my memoir with three chapters of backstory'." - Valerie FrancisRelated Story Nerd EpisodesSee How They Run  (Season 9, Episode 5) REGISTER FOR THE 2024 SPRING WEBINAR SERIESFor access to writing templates and worksheets, and more than 70 hours of training (all for free), subscribe to Valerie's Inner Circle.To learn to read like a writer, visit Melanie's website.Follow Valerie on X, Instagram and Threads @valerie_francisFollow Melanie on X, Instagram and Facebook @MelanieHillAuthor

The movie had both me and Valerie on the edge of our seats. When we come across a masterful movie we pull out as much as we can for you. This episode is chock-a-block full of info about point of view, narrative drive, clues, and liars. We also examine how the twist in The Good Liar is set up and pulled off. I continue to track the clues and motives this week...or should we say I track the lies. Valerie discusses how point of view and narrative drive work together to create this exciting thriller.If you're building up to your twisty ending, this episode will have you speedwriting to get to the big reveal. -M"When the whole meaning of a movie or a story changes, because of a vital piece of information REVEALED AT THE END then this is a device called a twist." - Melanie HillRelated Story Nerd EpisodesTinker Tailor Soldier Spy (Season 9, Episode 4)The Bourne Identity (Season 3, Episode 2) For information about Valerie's upcoming webinars, visit: www.valeriefrancis.ca/webinarsFor access to writing templates and worksheets, and more than 70 hours of training (all for free), subscribe to Valerie's Inner Circle: www.valeriefrancis.ca/innercircleTo learn to read like a writer, visit Melanie's website: www.melaniehill.com.auFollow Valerie on X, Instagram and Threads @valerie_francisFollow Melanie on X, Instagram and Facebook @MelanieHillAuthor

Ciaran chats to writer and publisher Elizabeth McSkeane about her Glaswegian upbringing, with pictures of the JFK, visits to Glasgow Celtic and St. Patrick's Day traditions. We hear Liz reading works by the Irish poet living in Germany, Jo Burns, from her latest collection of poetry Brink. Liz has a passion for languages and different cultures. Feeling European, Irish and Scottish, it's a wonderful benefit to be so mobile in Europe as if it is one country. We hear about Samuel Beckett's time in Germany in the 1930's and the inspiration behind his most famous work Waiting for Godot. Liz tells us about her publishing company Turas Press and we get an insight into the running of a small publishing house.

(SOLVED 5/20) On Wednesday, August 31st, 1983 the nude body of Susan Lee Eads was discovered among the brush in a ditch on an empty lot at NASA Road One and Elam Street in Seabrook. Susan had been raped and strangled. The investigation went cold almost as soon as it began; there was little evidence and a man seen leaving behind Susan from a local bar the last time she was seen alive was a stranger to the establishment's patrons. Four years later, Seabrook Police got a good lead, but it wasn't to be. The arrest of a serial killer in 2003, Anthony Allen Shore – The Tourniquet Killer, got the department's hopes up again but DNA excluded him. In 2018, police released recorded phone calls made to Susan's mother not long after Susan's death in hopes to generate new leads. Is it the voice of a killer or a hoax?Special thanks to our pal, Danny Smith, for his insight on Susan's case.You can purchase his amazing Detective Novels at:https://www.amazon.com/Danny-R-Smith/e/B075BJR42W?ref=sr_ntt_srch_lnk_1&qid=1563159117&sr=8-1You can also find him on Facebook and Twitter at, respectively:https://www.facebook.com/Dickie.Floyd.Novels/https://twitter.com/dickiefloyd187Promo this episode: Murder And Suchhttps://twitter.com/MurderandSuchYou can support gone cold podcast – texas true crime by visiting https://www.patreon.com/gonecoldpodcast You can also find us on Facebook and Twitter by using @gonecoldpodcast#JusticeForSusanEads #Seabrook #SeabrookTX #Houston #HoustonTX #Texas #TrueCrime #TexasTrueCrime #UnsolvedMurder #ColdCase
