“My point here is I want to encourage you that even if you don't see anybody else crafting the kind of story, or living the kind of life that you are, that number one, you're actually not alone because all artists are trying to do that. Uh, or those of us who are on the edge. Uh, a cutting edge. And, it's important, the work you're doing, so please, please, please stay the course.”

In this episode, “Economics: More Than Money and Markets (Build Better Worlds, 4 of 4)” podcast host of How To Write The Future, Beth Barany, finishes her discussion on the book Build Better Worlds by Michael Kilman and Kyra Wellstrom. Beth also shares the three elements of every economic system: production, distribution, and consumption, and provides an in-depth explanation for each. Be sure to listen to parts 1-3 first before delving into the final part of this mini-series.
