Maja is the name, lighthearted true crime is the game! In my stories, a person decides to commit to a bad deed, by all means necessary. We know the who, the when , the what and the where. What we try to get to is the motive. We go backwards from the discovery of the crime, as true armchair detectives, while Maja does her best to put you in the shoes of a character in the story. And to stop talking to herself in third person or in general. Join her to get to the bottom of the motives, by all means necessary.

    #128 : In Near Future, Women Are Restricted To 100 Words A Day — Vox | FICTION

    Just popping by before this episode to say the podcast (as well as my YT channel) are being put on an indefinite hold, while I try to focus on other professional and personal projects. If you have been here since the beginning or joined for a single episode, I appreciate you more than you know. Thank you for being part of this journey - here's to hope we meet again very soon!

    Now let's get into this.

    Average person speaks about 16k words each day. In the not so distant future, the government rules that women are restricted to daily word count of 100. They are banned from holding jobs, reading or writing, with the counter being strapped on the wrists of newborn girls.

    What would you do to get things back to normal? To make the future better for your girls and all of the girls around the world?
