ACOFAE Podcast Presents: Series Fatigue: The Dryad Storm by Laurie Forest Being excited about a new release can be scary. Being excited about a new release that is ALSO the conclusion to the series is another level of excited/scary. When that new release that is also the conclusion of the series then turns out to be a DNF for BOTH Laura Marie and Jessica Marie, then the question becomes? Was it them? or Is it really that bad? The Black Witch Chronicles comes to an end with The Dryad Storm, the book that was such a DNF that is sparked a question about fatigue and the willingness to journey through the slog. How much is the reader's time worth? When do you take ownership of your reading and acknowledge that you are not having fun? What other series suffer from series fatigue? If any? All that and more is discussed as ACOFAE Laura and ACOFAE Jessica pinpoint where the series lost them and why. "Anything for the pod, but not this."

There's been discussions about being bratty, snobby, and enjoying things just for what they are -- vibes. So in light of all this history, Laura Marie and Jessica Marie have called in some backup to discuss book 3 of The Empyrean Series Onyx Storm. ACOFAE welcomes Aris to the pod to help frame discussions to put them firmly in the realm of THEORIES. Yes, that's correct. ACOFAE is discussing guesses and theories as well as the plot and all it's details as Laura Marie, Jessica Marie, and friend of show Aris get into it. That's tea.

This week, Mia & Karly are breaking down their favorite oddly specific book tropes. From knife-wielding heroines (The Cruel Prince), dramatic "who hurt you?" moments (Heir of Fire always hits different), angsty betrayals (Bridge Kingdom), romance-filled training montages (Fourth Wing), the classic one-bed trope (ACOMAF), dark and broody MMCs who'd burn the world for their love (Shatter Me), comedic best friends who lighten the mood (Six of Crows), assassin love stories (A Shadow in The Ember), and fake make-outs that turn real and steamy.  Plus, they're ranting about affordable ways to enjoy summer when you're too broke for a Euro trip: be a tourist in your own city, host a movie night, plan a food crawl, take a day trip, try DIY crafts or join a class. But most importantly, if you need to find Karly & Mia this summer, all you need to do is look up (they're on a rooftop.)

Today Karly & Mia are throwing it back to the 2010s YA Dystopian Fiction era and diving into the worlds of "Shatter Me" by Tahereh Mafi and "Uglies" by Scott Westerfeld. In this episode, they provide spoiler-free background insights into both captivating series, exploring the dystopian landscapes and compelling characters that have captured their 10-year old (and now 24-year old) imaginations. Join the girls as they pit these two beloved series against each other to determine which one reigns supreme.   Speaking of the 2010s, remember when we all downloaded instagram for the first time and followed anyone within a 10 mile radius? Karly & Mia recently hit a wall and unleashed an Instagram following purge. The girls are ready to rant about how to feel empowered to hit that unfollow button with no second thoughts. If you need any convincing to clear out your following, Karly seriously envisioned her villain arc movie montage and Mia was quite literally giggling and kicking her feet in the aftermath. But actually though, the endless scroll of perfection and supply of engagement pics is exhausting, and no one has time for that in 2024. Happy reading besties!

Bree has a lot on her mind. She is the Crown Sion of Arthur, a daughter, a friend, a King, a warrior, the wound-made weapon, and the tip of the spear. Bree's ancestors ran so that she would not have to. A lot of pressure for anyone, let alone one 16-year-old girl. As the Scion of Arthur, Bree should be in charge of everything. There is a war coming and the table must be united in spirit and in flesh. The regents however, would rather trap and study Bree and her power. To keep her safe. Bloodmarked takes us on a powerful journey that finds us in locations like the crossroads bar and a network of safehouses on the underground railroad. The ancestors and Bree have a lot to say to each other and it's not always pleasant. Breaking generational curses is hard work, but Bree can do anything.

In this episode we talk about the power of love over fear. I share how I was inspired by a song by Lindsey Sterling called "Shatter Me". This song is about a woman whose soul's desire is to attract deep and meaning love into her life. She looks in the mirror and shatters her fears around love and security and finds her true self. When you allow yourself to get into your body and trust your own desires (no matter how crazy, wild and ridiculous they are); you breakthrough the fear that stops you from moving forward. It begins with knowing your desire, acknowledging the fear and then having the courage to say YES; ultimately shattering the fear that was in your way.

Sophie Salveson survived a stroke at 19. It's not the way any freshman wants to end their first year of college. She was a writer, actor, and singer. The stroke stole her right side limbs, her speech, and her access to language. Over the past 10 years she fought back through PT, OT, speech therapy. She learned to stand, walk and speak again. And she continues to make progress. In the previous episode (http://strokecast.com/ExpandedPractice) I spoke with Marabeth Quinn, Sophie's Mom, and Danielle Stoller, one of Sophie's Physical Therapists. This week, we hear from Sophie and Marabeth and learn more about Sophie's journey. If you don't see the audio player below, visit http://Strokecast.com/Sophie.   Click here for a machine-generated transcript Song Many people with aphasia find it easier to sing than to speak. Early treatment sometimes involves getting folks to sing their name or sing a greeting. Or even sing a song deeply embedded in their memory, like Happy Birthday. It has to do with the way music and song live in different part of the brain. Aphasia isn't the only place music as an impact. In episode 106, I spoke with Brian Harris of Medrhythms about his work using music to bypass limitations of the motor cortex and help people significantly improve their gait. This is an amazing video of Sophie from 2020. You can hear her sing, "A Change in Me" from Beauty and the Beast. Now, I really want to hear Sophie's Eponine. Maggie and Michael Sophie isn't the only stroke survivor with a passion for theater. I talked with Maggie in episode 38. Since then she has acted in a theater company fill with folks with disabilities. She continues to make progress on her documentary, The Great Now What. Here's the trailer: Michael Schutt was on the show in episode 124 talking about creating his solo show to share his stroke story. COVID lock downs meant planned performances didn't happen. He pivoted it into a radio play available on line. You can listen at http://ALessonInSwimming.com. Sophie's Book Recommendations The first book Sophie really read for pleasure after her stroke was "Shatter Me," by Tahereh Mafi.* It came with a powerful endorsement -- her sister's. And connecting about the book with her sister was a powerful incentive to read it, no matter what it took. Sophie's current favorites include "Good Girl's Guide to Murder," by Holly Jackson and "Elsewhere," by Gabrielle Zevin. * Pick up a copy or find them at your library and tell Sophie what you like about her favorites. Hack of the Week Keep trying. Speaking with aphasia is tough, but the only way out is through the key is to keep trying and to keep working on it. I've found it best top to try doing a thing with my affected hand three times before switching to my unaffected side. By trying three times, I'm reminding my brain that my left hand is still there and has a job to do. By stopping after three failed attempts, I stave off frustration and can try again another day.

They aren't the villain. They definitely aren't the hero and they always have a plan. And usually a cool accessory too. They might not die for us but they'd kill for us and we are strangely okay with that. We're talking about morally gray characters and there are more of them than meets the eye. Join Laura Marie and Jessica Marie as they cycle through characters new and old and try to figure out who is what and why we love them so much. There's more than just Kaz, Jude, and Scythe Lucifer.
