About this project: I am writing a weekly sci-fi story to the theme of Isaac Arthur’s SFIA videos. It’s a crazy challenging timeframe to create a good short story in, and to do so publicly is even more daunting. I’m just hoping some good stories come out of this, I have fun writing them, and most importantly, the audience enjoys!
Thanks for stopping by!

Yeah, more Misfits!
Thanks, Rusty! Love writing them so much 😃
I love your reading! Please take care of yourself. I know the reading has been hard on you. The fact this was a long story was not missed.
You always leave me on the edge of my seat with my favorite crew of misfits.
Thanks, Tara! Glad you're enjoying. The support is much appreciated! I am recording a week in advance now, so I am doing the reading over multiple days, which I think has helped the voice a lot. That said, it is a lot of editing 😵💫but well worth it to keep the adventure going 😃
I love the misfits series. Even more I’ve really enjoyed how past stories are beginning to tie into the present story line.
Cheers, Neptune! That has been happening a lot lately. Exactly how I drew it up 🙃😉
Never disappointed with any story. This was awesome. Thanks for posting.
Cheers, Ron! Glad you enjoyed! 😃
I'm enjoying the series, and your stories . Hope you had a nice rest .
Thank you, David! I gave the voice a good rest, but the keyboard never stops 😃
Did not see that crossover coming, can't wait for the next!
Cheers, Farshadow!
I cannot wait to learn more about the happenings in this story. Thanks!
Always still working on it, Ty! The adventure continues 😃
Great story. Loved the ending.
Thanks, Herbie! Glad you enjoyed it 😃
Another great epsode. Glad that you are managing your voice so that you can relay this series without too much grief to yourself. All the twists and turns make your writing grippingly exciting and I'm always so surprised how fast the time passes while listening to your dulcet tones. Roll on next week's adventure, and thank you.
Thanks, Frank! I feel like the new strategy is making for better vocals, but wow!!! Dulcet tones? I'll take it 😂😃 Seriously, though, you are too kind 🙏 Glad to hear you're enjoying!
Another fantastic job fastest hour I've spent in a long time can't wait for next Thursday thank you again
Thanks, Dan! Glad you're enjoying!
I don't like that I'm all caught up now! I'll be patiently waiting for the next episode! I might have to dig into some of my Asimov books after binge listening to your stories!
Thanks, Athena. I can attest, though, that Thursday comes around again fast!
What in the what? So many answers provided by new questions. Masterful cliff hanger.
Thanks, Greyghost! I can't wait to get back to work on the next one!
Really exciting!

Cheers, Vicki! 😃😃😃😃😃
Note squad! I’m so excited! I’m commenting as I listen to the beginning 😂
Thanks, GF! 😃
Great twist, never saw this coming. 😮
Cheers, Martin! Glad you liked it.
Damn dude, you have me on the edge of my seat! ✌️
Thanks, Steve! It's a fun ride for me too!
Holy fuckin shit!!! What a revelation. You are the master 🙌 👏
Cheers, Andrew!
I had trouble getting my mind situated in the far future stories at first, so I'm listening to them again. This time, "Where do humans come from?" sent a shiver down my spine.
Thanks, David! If you haven't checked out "Failsafe," that was the first story about that far future, and the mediums ask that question in that story too.
@@RoweLit Oh, yeah, I did. That was why I had such a strong reaction. Last time thru, I didn't see the significance.
Awesome again, it seems like you tie up some loose ends and make more new ones. maybe like a plate of spaghetti ? idk . Metaphors aside I am really enjoying it! And lots of suspense now can barely wait for more.
Thanks, MrIzzy! I like to think of this series as more of a cosmic cannoli 😃
ha
The twists just keep coming! Love it!
Cheers, Keith! I hope I can keep it up for Misfits November 😃
Wow what an ending! Looking forward to the next instalment.
Thanks, Alistair! It's coming soon 😃
Misfits Stories: ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Cheers, Alfred. My favorite to write 😃Glad you're enjoying!
As I have said before, the Misfits would make a great RPG in the classic sense - like D&D. Or a Choose Your Adventure book...
An excellent tale...in a way, it reminds me of the " Star Rigger" series , where there are drive through wormholes, left by a previous unknown civilization. Some of the routes were mapped, some not....
Cheers, Scott!!! I only wish I had infinite time to explore the different avenues these stories could take. I think I would have a blast learning about that one. But it's so far outside my domain, I wouldn't know where to begin, and the writing takes up all my time. For now, I think the best I can do is keep writing the episodes and growing the channel, and perhaps that road will open one day.
Here's hoping!

Very cool thanks for sharing
Thanks, Dean! Always happy to share!
22 Sep 2023, Hi PE Rowe. I really enjoyed your universe "The Misfits" and crew the of Cpt Birch. You're a really awesome Sci-fi writer and narrator, not a lot of fluff, it's great to find a new channel in it's infancy n see it grow. Listened to your whole Misfits universe in two days thoroughly injoying it's journey n feeling not a waste of time. Keep pumping those quality stories, you'll have million subs in a few years, ive seen it happen. I'll help you on your way to many more Subs, see you around P.E.R.....
Cheers, MDS! 🙏😃
I believe PE is well educated, his diction, and suppositions show this to me.
Excellent!
Thanks, Kennyjoe!
Amazing to hear you and you‘r storry evolve and grow. I‘m going to share this playlist with everybody I know who can understand english.
Keep it up and Greetings from germany.
Cheers, Exile! Thanks for help spreading the word 🙏😃
Great job! The narration is done very well, you are one of the best if not the best on the internet right now, your manner prevents that hypnotization effect, putting people to sleep effect, that can sometimes happen when you're listening to narrations or audio books. I have liked and subscribed. Keep up the great work.
Thanks, Shane! It's funny. One thing I've learned this past year is that narration seems to be a very personal taste, as I get a fair amount of criticism on it as well as compliments. I know I'm not as good as professional voice actors with the gift of glorious pipes 😃But I really just aspire to get the stories out there in a manner that most people find decent enough to listen to the content. I appreciate that you appreciate the work that goes into the narration 🙏
Thank You
Cheers, Charles!
WEEE... THAT WAS FUN!!! I'M GOING AGAIN. I
Cheers, KJ! Enjoy the ride 😃
They should be a TV series misfits would do great
Maybe someday, Neil 😃Thanks!
This whole series is great.
Like the video, people.
Thanks, Lucca 😃🙏
cant wait for my fix of sci fi soap,dont know how u manage such consistancy and quality,well i do after reading your bio, keep on keeping on brother, bringing(much needed) love and light to this world in these dark times, its just like medicine for the mind and soul,,xxxTAoxxx
Thanks, Bob! I love doing it, so I write every day! No tricks, just passion 😃
Aw man!.... next part now, please.
Thanks, Chaz! Coming soon! 😃
The plot deepens! I was wondering if those two might meet up again😊 Although your writing is in my opinion excellent (the best) science fiction and so there’s always artistic freedom (“How do the inertial dampers work?” - “Very well, thank you!” Etc), I do wonder how such long-lived humans handle centuries of memories? The old monkey-brain mk.2 only has so much space and forgetting is inconvenient sometimes. I wonder if there’s a side story where a millennia-old human has their ‘external backup’ memory held to ransom. I must ponder 😃
Very cool concept. External Hard Drive of the Spotless Mind?!? 👀
@@RoweLit yep 👍 mind you an alternative might be the observation “ah it’ll be all nanotechnology - a cortex grown around the cortex” doing all the networked things a citizen of the future would need, including thousands of petabytes of storage. In which case… ransomware comes to mind. Maybe that’s neuromancer territory, but yep your universe has lots and lots of opportunity for intriguing puzzles arising from how such capabilities might work 😃
@@RoweLit The ‘external HDD of a spotless mind’ makes me think of ‘the picture of Dorian Gray’
@@rlbf1967 There's a story 😮
outstanding !
Thanks, Maurice! You're on a roll 😃
AMAZING
I'm slowly getting more caught up on this storyline.
Cheers, Osmia! Glad to hear it 😃
Excellent
Awesome content. ✌️
Thanks, Mike! 😃🙏
I like this story.
Thanks, Phillip 😃 Glad to hear it!
Are there going to be more misfits episodes? Or are they part of the Thursday stories? I didn't see a link to the Misfits series on the website, but maybe I missed it. Anyway, I love how you tie the Misfits in to other stories that aren't specifically part of the series.
Thanks, Gramma! Yes, more Misfits are coming 😃They are part of the Thursday series. I've been too busy recently to update the website, but I will have a section for it soon. And, I'm planning a Misfits collection for the end of the year. So glad you're enjoying!
Is there going to be an episode 12 continuing welcome to future?
Thanks, Tim! It's much more likely to be episode 13. Episode 12 is in the works already, though 😃
Complete this story please.
Hi, Herb! The first season is complete now 😃You can find the whole enchilada here: czcams.com/video/2vQHAeobemQ/video.html
When will the misfits second series coming out
Thanks, Michael! The new episodes come out as I write them, usually one or two a month depending on what other weekly stories I'm working on as well. I'm planning to have the whole 2nd season done in time to release the whole book for the holidays, so November-ish. In the meantime, if you want to follow along the first five so far this year are on the "Misfits" playlist (czcams.com/play/PLWl-Jc_I2wPAsngY7MCID9sS_98Y2siT5.html&feature=shared), including the latest episode from Thursday, "Metals."
So glad you're enjoying 😃
😲!

To scary for me.
I made it through though.
Thanks, Martin!
🥰👍👍🙏💜⚡
Cheers, Barry! You finally made it back to the future 🚀😃
Mark CEN CA here again 😮 how do you do the female voices PE curious 😅😅
Not sure, just talk a little higher, I guess. The voice acting part of this is the most mysterious to me. As a writer, I know what I'm doing, but when it comes to that, I'm just winging it 😂
@@RoweLitMark CEN CA sorry for the late reply what your saying is informative you are doing a great job of it without their voices it would not be near as compelling
Mark CEN CA revisiting this and I must say it's pleasant 😅
Mark CEN CA when they cry l cry what does Tell you about me hard on the outside soft on the inside 😂
PE I'm here😂
But the real question is "where is here?" 😃
Central California and your audio 😭
Not playing, Mark?
@@RoweLitdon't understand not playing PE Mark CEN CA
Apparently so!😉
