I have just discovered these podcasts and have really enjoyed them all, but this one was in my opinion, one of the best. I particularly appreciated knowing that most problems can be solved, be they plot, character, pacing, etc. Thanks so much for putting these podcasts up!
Hi, Janet – Thanks for leaving the comment! We’re glad you’re taking the time to go through the back catalog. I wish there were an easy way to categorize everything so listeners could find what they wanted more easily. If you’re dealing with a particular writing or editing problem, we’d love to hear about it. Read world problems make for great shows.
Thank you, Janet, for stopping by to comment and I’m so, so glad that these conversations have been helpful! If you ever have a specific-to-you writing/editing/publishing question that you’re struggling with, we’d be happy (excited!) to tackle it with you 🙂
