What if the most captivating books… had no plot at all?

In this episode, we explore the unconventional beauty of plotless storytelling—how books that defy traditional structure can still resonate deeply with readers. From emotional landscapes to lyrical prose and rich inner worlds, we break down what makes “plotless” writing work and why readers keep coming back for more.

PLUS, I’m joined by special guest J.S. Gold, author of the Sanhedrin Chronicles, to talk about his approach to crafting immersive, character-driven narratives that don’t follow the typical story arc. We’ll discuss what inspires him, the challenges of writing without a rigid plot, and how his book invites readers to reflect deeply on meaning, power, and legacy.

Whether you're a writer curious about experimenting beyond the three-act structure or a reader who loves literary fiction that makes you feel, this episode is for you.
