In this eye-opening episode of The Scribe Vibe, host Janae encourages you to break the chains of perfectionism by embracing the art of intentionally writing badly. Discover why tearing down the rules and diving headlong into clichés, plot holes, and purple prose can actually sharpen your storytelling skills and help you find your true voice. Learn how to transform cringeworthy drafts into powerful lessons, unearth unexpected gems buried in the wreckage, and apply these insights to your polished, publish-ready work.

Plus, don’t miss a preview of our upcoming episode on "Plotting by the Zodiac: Mapping Your Story Based on Star Signs." After that, stick around for Writer’s Talk with special guest author Emily Lankow, who will share insights from her gripping books Guardian and Riftrider. It’s a packed episode designed to help you stretch your creative muscles, gain confidence, and write bravely—even when it’s bad on purpose.
