Episode #30 – April 30, 2025
Welcome to episode 29 of the Writing on Caffeine podcast. My daughter (Ragan Franzone) and I (Jonathan Franzone) are a father and daughter who have decided to write our first novel. In this podcast, we invite you to join us on this journey.
It’s editing season on Writing on Caffeine! In this episode, Jonathan and Ragan share their experience rereading their first drafts and diving into the reverse outline process—complete with character revelations, structural surprises, and a healthy dose of Post-it note chaos. They reflect on February’s progress and look ahead to the real work of March: character revisions, thematic clarity, and staying motivated through the mess. Whether you’re mid-revision or gearing up to start, this episode is your cozy companion on the editing journey.
