Summary: The first episode of the new year, we’re starting things off right by talking about goals for 2015. The guys really shaped the year to come (until something shiny distracts them and everything changes) by laying out some benchmark outcomes and concepts. The new word for the year is either “harmony” or “optimization,” at least for now, since it will likely change a few times in the months to come. Now that S&S has a massive catalog of titles to play with, in Johnny’s perfectly articulated words, “it’s time to make our books work for us.” A few things you’ll probably be looking forward to especially: A return to form for Collective Inkwell, meaning more words and more amazing stories Fiction Unboxed 2, which the guys are promising will be game changing and jaw dropping A return to fiction as the main focus for S&S That last one is good whether you read their fiction or not. We’ll all likely see a huge improvement in the usefulness of SPP if the guys are producing more fiction and promoting it more. After all, most listeners are fiction writers, so if the guys do more cool stuff with their fiction, we’ll all benefit more from lessons learned from their experiments, failures, and successes. All in all, if you’re not excited about SPP and Sterling and Stone for the new year, what’s wrong with you?
