The QuitCast for Writers is a podcast created around the content of Becca Syme’s “What to Quit, What to Keep, and What to Question” model of coaching writers. We feature three types of shows.
~ What to Quit ~
We’re all doing too much. We need to do less. Focus more. How do we decide what not to do? This is how. Watch these shows.
~ What to Keep ~
There are proven models of success metrics. It’s important to know how to trust your own wiring to make choices for you and to stand out as a writer. These shows will help to illustrate what to keep doing and where to focus more time, based both on the CliftonStrengths model and also on the experience of excellent, standout writers who are also wired this way.
~ What to Question ~
Becca is a huge fan of questioning the premise (QTP) of advice that you get from both “experts” and real experts alike. Anyone can tell you what worked for them, and they can say, “it might not work for you”, but they can’t tell you why. These shows can tell you why.
Dan and Alex explore the transformative power of the True Myth as it is revealed in the best books by C.S. Lewis and friends. Read along with them and come be a part of their book club. (homework optional; spoilers inevitable)

An unflinching account of starting over by a bottom who has hit rock bottom…
With his 10-year relationship at an end and his career going down the toilet, loser British playwright Chris Thompson heads to New York City where he embarks on a journey of sexual liberation and self discovery. As he searches for connection in cruising grounds, art galleries, dive bars, Chris is haunted by the artists of New York City who came before him and the ghost of every gay man in whose footsteps he walks- forcing Chris to face up the limitations of his own desires. Two Foreskins Walk into a Bar is a powerful, laugh-out-loud and lyrical meditation on desire, self deception and collective memory.
Season Two, Chris finds himself washed up in Key West, and continues his quest for desire, love and connection.
Written and performed by Chris Thompson | Directed by Andrew Fallaize | Editing and post-production by Christopher Huth.
