Mystery Writing Pivot + Weird Al Fun | New Author Podcast

We recorded on Monday. We released it on Wednesday. That’s not time travel—it’s editing. If you’re looking for mystery writing tips, indie author advice, or want to hear how a writer turns a draft into a whodunit, this episode is for you. Jerry takes Book 1.5—his free short story—from an Indiana-Jones-style chase into a tight, Agatha Christie-like murder mystery, something that fits far better into his Sam Norris series. Rich rescues books from the library before the landfill claims them, and Weird Al Yankovic steals the show (as always). There’s golf, there’s Aleve, there’s a Stream Deck for writers that threatens to automate everything except the actual sentences. In this episode: The big pivot: why Book 1.5 works better as a murder mystery than a fetch quest Rich’s library life: culling, “first pick,” and a house filling with novels Weird Al concert highlights + Puddles Pity Party: nostalgia buttons pushed Tools that help (or fight back): Scrivener, Atticus formatting, and Stream Deck magic Writing goals: a two-week sprint to finish the new 1.5 draft Have thoughts on turning side adventures into clue-driven stories? Drop them in the comments. We read them and respond to them.
