No, nothing of mine was read on air, and I never actually expected it to be. I’ve seen too many episodes of CreepCast where they basically start shitting on an author’s work three words into it. The “The Antichrist Salesman” episode is a prime example. There’s no constructive criticism, nothing at all witty just talking shit.
I just turned off the video and then unsubscribed. I know they are trying to be edgy but it’s cringe and insulting. The author of the story actually posted an apology in the comments. Seriously Fuck Hunter and Isaiah, it’s not fun, it’s not funny, and it’s probably going to turn off writers who may be creative and just unsure of themselves and see this kind of bullshit and give up.
(Adding my response to the actual author because it appears his comment may have been deleted)
I couldn’t keep listening to these two idiots shtting on the story when they were literally only two lines in so I can’t say if it was a good effort or not. I’ve still yet to read anything Isaiah or Hunter has written if they have written anything, so I’d take any sht talking they do with a grain of salt. The story may be a mess, I don’t know listening to these two idiots going full snark before a line was even read outloud I stopped listening to the entire show. Nothing I heard in the first 20 minutes before turning it off was in any was helpful and I’d imagine is more discouraging for writers who are scared about sharing their stories. I just removed both of mine form tales from the creep, it’s posted elsewhere, I just don’t want to be part of their community anymore. They can poke fun but Jezus, the story was never given a chance, good or bad. To you I’d say just keep writing, don’t let internet loud mouths prevent you from continuing writing.
