Launching in June!
Unlucky Traveller
Hello everyone, thanks for checking out my page. I'm Ira Yake, and this is the home of the Unlucky Traveller podcast, which will be launching sometime in Early to Mid June. I still have to hammer out all the details, so that's why there is no firm date yet. I'm expecting to be posting bi-weekly episodes.
This is a worldbuilding podcast, focused on the process and methods of building a fictional world that can be used for writing, table top gaming, video gaming, or just as a fun hobby. I'll be going through everything from deciding on what type of solar system to use, all the way down to which flowers are in the municipal buildings garden.
My initial plan for the format of the podcast will be to separate it into seasons of indeterminate length. Each season will focus on a different world, and the season will end when I feel the world is as good as it's going to get, or I decided to use it for a different project such as a novel or series. The episodes will be between 20-40 minutes long, aiming for shorter more often. I listen to plenty of long episode podcasts, but for my purposes I believe a shorter format will fit better.
That's all the information I have for now. You can follow the podcast on twitter @UnluckyPodcast or find it on reddit at r/unluckytraveller. I'm also setting up a patreon page for anyone who enjoys the podcast and would like to help out. Right now the hosting and production costs are coming out of pocket for me, but if we can reach even $20 a month on patreon that will cover nearly all of the costs. I'll be putting the link up here when I get the page up and running.
I also have a personal website where I run a blog and post other projects that I'm working on, usually writing related. You can find that at www.irayake.com.
Thank you for reading, and here's hoping you'll be hearing from me soon!
