BUDDHA AND THE SLUT
What happens when an award-winning writer/producer hits 'eject' on the 9 to 5, grabs a backpack, and dives head-first into the uncharted world of 'digital nomads'? After 7 YEARS in Asia, Europe, and parts unknown, BROOKE BURGESS (Broken Saints, Becoming, The Cat's Maw) shares candid tales of culture shock, creative inspiration, sex and relationships, psychedelics and spirituality, and much MUCH more! It's a 'Renaissance Dude's' Eat, Pray, Love (with the naughty bits still intact) — it's BUDDHA AND THE SLUT.

I've been a game writer and interactive narrative guy, in some capacity or another, since 1997. 23 YEARS. Let that sink in for a minute. And even with all of that experience, I still get asked -- more often than not these days -- to do a writing test. Why?
Because it lets them get your best ideas...FOR FREE.

With just a few weeks left to brace before the 'oldometer' rolls me into obsolescence? I wanted to reach out to my most loyal and loving listeners with a humble request. And if just 5% of you send me a little somethin-somethin'? Then this mid-life nightmare might just turn into a storyteller's creative dream...

If there’s anything I've learned in nearly 5 DECADES on this waterlogged rock spinning in the deep, deep dark for God Knows What Purpose before this soul of mine pops off like the last bubble in a dirty kid’s bathwater..?
LOVE represents something different for EVERYONE. And it felt like the right time to share what it means to me.
