Thank you, NW Nerd, for sponsoring today's episode! NW Nerd is a podcast chronicling the people and the passions that make geek life so great. These are the stories that make us nerds. Listen wherever you listen to podcasts and follow online at @nw_nerd.This week we want to thank Phoenix, Ariel, Antonia, Natasha, Alexandria, and Angela for supporting us on Patreon. It's because of you we can keep this community running!Exciting news, lovers of fan fiction! This week's guests, Justine Mastin and Larisa Garski wrote a book all about the therapeutic power of fan fiction called Starship Therapise.Modern mythologies are everywhere–from the Avengers of the Marvel Cinematic Universe to the dragons of Game of Thrones. Where once geek culture was niche and hidden, fandom characters and stories have blasted their way into our cineplexes, bookstores, and streaming systems. They help us make sense of our daily lives–and they can also help us heal. Mental health therapists and Starship Therapise podcast hosts Larisa A. Garski and Justine Mastin offer a self-help guide to the mental health galaxy for those who have been left out in more traditional therapy spaces: geeks, nerds, gamers, cosplayers, introverts, and all of their friends.Starship Therapise explores the ways in which narratives and play inform the shape of our lives, inviting readers to embrace radical self-care with lessons from Westworld's Maeve and Dolores, explore anxiety with Miyazaki, and understand narrative therapy with Arya Stark. Spanning fandom from Star Wars to Harry Potter, The Legend of Zelda to Steven Universe, and everywhere in between, Starship Therapise is an invitation to explore mental health and emotional wellness without conforming to mainstream social constructions.Insights from comics like Uncanny X-Men, Black Panther, Akira, Bitch Planet, The Wicked + Divine, and Batman offer avenues to growth and self-discovery alongside explorations of the triumphs and trials of heroes, heroines, and beloved characters from Star Wars, Wuthering Heights, The Lord of the Rings, The Broken Earth trilogy, Mass Effect, Fortnite, Minecraft, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and Star Trek. Each chapter closes with a hands-on mindfulness, meditation, or yoga exercise to inspire reflection, growth, and the mind-body-fandom connection.If that sounds up your alley, you can order now, follow @starship_therapise online, and listen to Starship Therapise wherever you listen to podcasts.Special thanks to our executive producers for this episode Geeklery, Galaxy Gear Boutique, NW Nerd Podcast, and Karen Hallion.If you enjoyed this episode, you might love the rest of our episodes!

With full moons and the year coming to a close, the CO Blerd Girl looks into a few different works that allowed for reflection of what possibilities the future holds. The pursuit of a new passion or career, accepting a destiny that you might not have chosen willingly, maybe the application of skills that you didn't think were useful prior. Journey into the lessons that "Carole & Tuesday"(Netflix), "Wicked & the Divine" (Image Comics), and "Dr. Stone" (Crunchyroll) brought to the Blerd Girl while preparing for the turn of the year.

Multi-award-winning comics writer Kieron Gillen joins us on the pod today to discuss his methods for world building. Kieron is perhaps best known for The Wicked + The Divine, the hugely ambitious collaboration with artist Jamie McKelvie which presents a pantheon of gods who happen to also be pop stars, as well as UBER, Phonogram, DIE, Once & Future and Ludocrats. Beyond his own books he's also worked extensively with Marvel on X-Men, Thor, Iron Man and with LucasFilm on Darth Vader and Star Wars books. In the interview we explore the different challenges and opportunities of writing for established franchises compared to your own work, and how he approaches research and making things feel 'real' in fantasy stories. We spoke to Kieron just as he had been revealed as the writer on The Eternals, the return of a long-running series from Marvel. This episode is part of our Early Career Writers' Resource Pack on World Building, which also features insight and tips from Abi Daré, Farhana Shaikh and Ian Nettleton. These packs are made possible by support from Arts Council England. See the rest of the pack here: https://nationalcentreforwriting.org.uk/5-world-building/  Hosted by Stephanie McKenna and Simon Jones, who is barely able to contain his excitement.

Were you one of the MILLIONS (millions!!!) of people who saw the new Avengers: Infinity War trailer this past week??? The Talking Comics crew did and they're here with all their wild and rambunctious theories and musings (Joey even adds to his #AvengersSecretInvasion theory--it gets weird). Also, tons of comics talk this week, including some old school Wonder Woman, some Beautiful Canvas, some Eternity Girl, and some WICKED + DIVINE.  Also also, the gang bids a fond farewell to Kelly Thompson's Hawkeye... :(  #READCOMICS The Comic Book Podcast is brought to you by Talking Comics (www.talkingcomicbooks.com) The podcast is hosted by Steve Seigh (JoBlo.com editor), Bob Reyer, Joey Braccino, Jessica Garris-Schaeffer, and Melissa Megan who weekly dissect everything comics-related, from breaking news to new releases.
