Write, Publish, and Shine

Hello and welcome, luminous writers. I'm Rachel Thompson. I'm an author, a literary magazine editor, and an online writing instructor. And this is Write, Publish, and Shine—a podcast for emerging writers who want to publish and shine. After a pause, I'm back with a new season. I'm kicking things off by exploring rest and unrest as collaborators in our writing lives. How they shape our practice. Our energy. Our attention. This theme is one I've been thinking about for a while. It's actually the theme of the most recent issue of Room magazine that I edited with our brilliant team. You can get your copy—48.3, Rest/Unrest—at roommagazine.com. And you'll hear a little behind-the-scenes of producing that issue on the podcast, too. So in this season of Write, Publish, and Shine, we'll talk about how to keep making art when the world needs our resistance. When your energy is stretched. And when you still feel called to the page. You'll hear interviews with writers and editors about sustaining a practice. Craft-focused episodes on tension, revision, voice, and structure. And personal reflections on the realities of writing and creating with care. Every episode offers one or two practical moves you can try. And I hope it's also a reminder that you're not alone in the work of being a luminous writer. A writer who's attentive to seasons, to the world, and to developing both craft and resilience.
