Alan in Arkansas ,

One year later.

I think this podcast is one of the best things in aspiring author can do. I found it when I was needing concrete information that would help me in the process of writing and publishing. I’ve looked at many different methods and opinions. You guys have definitely impacted my life. On several of your podcast we were all reminded sometimes it takes time for something good to show up. I hope you keep up the good work.

Hard to Inspire ,

Like it enough

I’ve enjoyed listening to this podcast and learning about the different aspects of publishing. I’d have to say episode 66 is probably my least favorite so far… Not very fun listening toAnd industry professional talk about all the types of people that annoy her. Lol

zoesauve ,

So informative and entertaining!

I just found this podcast and I’ve already blazed through almost all of them. The guests brought on the show are each so interesting in their own different ways and shed light on their different perspectives of the publishing world. I can’t wait for season two!
