Episode Synopsis

In this episode, we tackle the messy ethical dilemmas authors actually face. Should you blurb another author’s book if you don’t like it? What happens when you want to use real-life businesses or locations in your murder mystery? How do you handle using actual people as the inspiration for a villain or a victim? We'll present real scenarios, poll the live audience for their takes, and give you our brutally honest answers about what we'd do (not what we should do). Bring your own moral compass and prepare for some uncomfortable truths about the publishing world.
