Tell the story. Survive the lie. The Writer is a fictional, serialised audio drama exploring the events of an imagined World War Three. When global conflict erupts, a young writer is drafted into the Foxtrot Unit, a psychological operations team tasked with documenting the war through stories that blend truth with deception. Their mission: to control the narrative. Some of what you’ll hear is true. Some isn’t. The question is … can you tell the difference? All names, ranks and locations have been changed to protect the identities of those involved. Out of respect for the fallen, the rest has been told exactly as it occurred, according to the Foxtrot Unit’s classified reports. Listener discretion is advised. Produced by Little Ear Productions.
