What does “Write what you know” really mean when you’re making a revenge Western from scratch? For me — Robert Christopher Smith — it meant cracking open my family secrets, pride in my mutt roots, and my need to flip the table on every tired idea about the Wild West.
In Episode 4 of the Lethal Voice Podcast, I get raw about Vengeance Turns... How pieces of my past — Native blood, shut doors, a band called Wild Love Rebellion — became the bones of Rebecca and Mia. How my co-writer Amanda’s real scars and real grit bled and fed right into Mia's claw... her rage, the brutal twists that make this story ours.
If you’ve ever wondered how deep you should dig into your own life for your art? This one’s for you. It’s messy. It’s uncomfortable. And it’s the only way I know how to make it real... and really lethal.
Hit play. Stay weird. Keep it lethal.
