August Coffee Shop Chats Q's + Announcement!
I'm absolutely terrible at remembering to update CSC news over here, so the best place to keep up with the show is in our Discord, but hello! Question call for the August interviews — we'll be chatting with Cry MJ of @twigsandhearts + William Wellman of @hellofromthehallowoods.
You can send in questions here/on anon via our askbox or drop them in the coffee shop Discord channel. Ask away!
Re: Updates, CSC now has an editor! that isn't me lmao! Everyone say hi to Azazel, who doesn't have a Tumblr but does have a portfolio you can check out, who will be helping out on the show. I'm looking forward to working with him on the show, and hope y'all will enjoy hearing his work too!

Coffee Shop Chats!
Thank you @podcast-bookclub for inviting me to be a guest on Coffee Shop Chats. Coffee Shop Chats is an indie podcast that interviews other indie podcast creators. Once the episode is released, you can hear me talk about sound design, burn out, my process for creating the horror audio drama @liarsandleechespod, and how characters from “Liars & Leeches” would play Minecraft.
All questions from my episode were submitted by members of the @podcast-bookclub discord server. If you’re looking to participate in a book club for podcasts, you should check them out and join the discord!

the shop across the street
(inspired by @primalmagic , college coffee shop au)
"I'm running a bit late, sorry," Taylor said. Her phone was connected to her car, and she could hear Aiden and Tyler's voices through the speaker, arguing as usual. She resisted the urge to laugh; once again, they were arguing over what to wear tonight for her show.
She was wearing a blue sleeveless dress, ankle-length. Ashlyn said it complimented her eyes, and that she'd look stunning as she presented her pieces. The final work was next to her in the passenger seat, covered by a cloth. This would be the second show she hosted, and yet she was still nervous, her finger tapping against the steering wheel.
She heard Tyler sigh through the phone. "Don't be late again."
"I know, I know," Taylor scoffed. At her first show, she ran late because of a coffee spill. She didn't want that to happen again.
There was arguing between her brother and friend for a few moments, and then silence. Then Aiden said, "Can you pick something up for me?"
She could practically feel Tyler's scowl burn through her phone. "Stop being greedy. She might be late again."
Taylor ignored the comment. "Yeah, I'll get you something. You too, Ty. Should I just get you whatever I get?"
There was a pause, then Tyler's voice said, "Whatever you get."
+++++
She stopped the car in front of a shop called The Aroma Bazaar. This was one of her favorite shops, and it was close to her university. Earlier, she had gone back to her apartment to change, then headed back to the college, where she'd present her projects in Building C. Inside the shop, she could see people bustling about. It looked slightly crowded, and she hoped this wouldn't take long.
Her white heels clicked against the pavement as she made her way to the small cafe, opening the door. A blast of AC hit her, ruffling her hair slightly. Smoothing it, she headed over to the counter, where a girl she recognized stood.
"Looking for Ben?" Lily asked. She'd grown up, and looked much older than how Taylor remembered. Her light brown hair was pulled into a ponytail, with hairclips attached to her bangs.
Taylor's cheeks tinted slightly pink. The girl was years younger than her, but acted more devious than what her innocent smile showed.
"I'm just here to pick up some coffee," Taylor answered. She tucked a stray strand of hair behind her ear. She felt nervous, but she didn't know if it was from going to the shop or for her upcoming show.
"Alright," Lily replied, still grinning. "I'll call Benny." She disappeared behind a curtain, then Ben appeared.
Hi, Taylor signed. Her hands shook slightly, but Ben didn't seem to notice.
Ben smiled, the corners of his eyes crinkling. That was one of Taylor's favorite features about him, but she was always too embarassed to admit it.
Hi, Ben signed back. Order online?
Taylor nodded, then watched as Ben pulled three drinks from under the counter, carefully placing them into the cup holder. He slid it towards her, making sure not to spill anything. After waiting for her to pay, he signed, I might not make it to your show.
Taylor felt something deflate inside of her, but signed, That's fine.
Nobody moved for a few seconds, until Taylor added, I ordered a seat for you and Lily though, just in case.
There it was. That smile again, where the corners of his eyes crinkled. Taylor's face was still warm, but she accepted the smile. See you there? Maybe? She took the cup holder.
Ben nodded. Of course.
As Taylor sat back down in her car, on the lid of her coffee, she noticed there was a small heart.
+++++
Taylor peered around the curtain, one hand gripping the microphone tight. The theater was two-thirds full, but the six seats she'd reserved for her friends only occupied Tyler and Aiden, who, once more, was arguing quietly under their breaths. Logan and Ashlyn would arrive a bit later; they were helping move things from Logan's grandparents' shop. She was unsure if Ben and Lily would come, though.
She took a deep, shaky breath. She recited her lines in her head, her greeting, how she would introduce her pieces. They were already inside of their display cases, their metal curves and spikes glistening in the light. She smoothed her hair with one hand, glancing at the stage member next to her. He spoke something into the walkie talkie he held, then gave her a thumbs-up.
She took another breath, then stepped onstage.
The light was almost blinding. She had to blink twice to clear her vision of the bright white-yellow. When she could properly see, she saw the hundred people that sat before her. Her heart thumped quickly, and then she noticed.
Quietly, two people made their way to the front row. She could recognize them inches away, or even miles away.
Next to the boy, the girl smiled. When he sat, Ben signed, You got this.
Taylor returned his smile, hoping it would be viewed as confident, as ready. And then she began.

"- Good job 'Fei, 'Ro's in another space. I totally lost my boyfriend. - What about you? Not reading the book I gave you? - Me? Naaah, I'm a streetrat remember? Gotta maintain the reputation."
I made this for the @gundamzine. I just want them to be fine now.

like yeah it’s so much fucking money to buy a coffee & a sweet treat but it’s about the ritual. it’s the ritual. it’s going outside of your house, meeting the familiar barista, chatting idly & waiting for a hot beverage you can carry around - you just don’t get that at home
