In this episode of 'Write Out Loud,' Matt & Christina reflect on the inspirational journey shared by author Kristen Ashley in the previous episode, highlighting her unwavering belief in herself and her passion for writing. They emphasize the importance of knowing and staying true to your own voice as a writer. 

The discussion transitions into the concept of 'resistance fiction,' exploring how fiction can either reinforce or rebel against the status quo. They introduce the book 'Parable of the Sower' by Octavia Butler as a hallmark of resistance fiction and invite listeners to read along and engage in a future discussion about the book's insights and its relevance to contemporary issues.
