Recommended by the Bello Collective, this audio recommendation is an episode of the podcast Love + Radio, which I admit I hadn’t heard of before.
"The Boys Will Work It Out" is an episode about a LOTR fan who got into writing slash fic (and RPF) partially as a way to deal with past abuse. She starts role playing with a fellow fan and develops a WLW relationship and they used the slash in their relationship.

It’s a deeply personal interview that is at times uncomfortable to listen to as a result, and is a fascinating entry into why some write slash and RPF.
Head’s up: there is some highly explicit slash read during the podcast, so don’t listen where that may get you in trouble.
