Story Men - April 30, 2014

Q Part 2

Q Part 2

Part 2 of our double-sized Episode 50! The StoryMen come to you live from the Q2014 Conference held in Nashville, TN, where they're joined by English professor and story expert Sarah-Jane Murray. In Part 2, we review the second day of Q, working through our favorite speakers, some problematic discussions of gender, some great discussions of gender, and what we thought of Day 2. Also it was super-late when we recorded, so we're a bit slap-happy. In this Episode: 00:00 - It's Late and our Brains are Full 03:00 - Q Brings the Tension 06:30 - Sarah-Jane's Favorites 09:30 - Clay's Favorites 12:00 - Matt's Favorites 14:00 - The most problematic talk 17:00 - Matt and JR. got in a fight 28:00 - Closing thoughts from Tripp Crosby

From Series: "StoryMen Season 3"

The StoryMen return under the NorvilleRogers banner! We've got better guests, bigger shows and - quite possibly - more potato chip challenges!

What do you find most challenging about the business of writing?

By JR. Forasteros

JR. lives in Dallas, TX with his wife Amanda. In addition to exploring the wonders that are the Lone Star state, JR. is the teaching pastor at Catalyst Community Church, a writer and blogger. His book, Empathy for the Devil, is available from InterVarsity Press. He's haunted by the Batman, who is in turn haunted by the myth of redemptive violence.
