Great writing podcast

I listen to a lot of podcasts on writing, and I particularly enjoy this one. I like that I can quickly get new ideas and tips to improve my own writing, and that she gets right to the point in six or seven minutes. I just wish there were more episodes to binge LOL… Highly recommend!

Dig Out an Old Story

As a writer, I'm always looking for inspirational "shorts". Blair's 4 minutes on revisiting an old piece on unfinished writing gave me the courage and right attitude to revisit a piece I abandoned, with disappointment a few months ago. I'm going to try again.
