Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Animal Writes - Episode 231 Cate Conte - Claws Out
Q: How do you approach planning for a multi-book contract—do you write two endings just in case the series continues, or do you write with a definite end in mind?
I didn't write this as if it were the end of the series; I planned with an eye toward continuing the arc, even though the contract was for three books, and I kept flexibility to adapt if the series continued.
Animal Writes - Episode 231 Cate Conte - Claws Out
Q: So tell us a little bit about how this book differs from the rest of the Cat Cafe Mystery series and how you tie it into the overall arc.
The book shifts the setting to Provincetown with the same core cast, expands the ensemble to include new characters, and continues Maddie's and her crew's investigative work while keeping the rescue and animal-centered themes at the heart of the story.
Animal Writes - Episode 236 Leokadia George - Trumpet The Miracle Wolf Pup: Trumpet Becomes a Mom
Q: Tell us a little bit about the book itself and how it came to be.
Leokadia explains that Trumpet is a Mexican gray wolf at the Wolf Conservation Center, the book was created to reach younger audiences, and the series was developed to cover different life stages while highlighting conservation, with Trumpet's birth and development as central milestones.
Animal Writes - Episode 232 William Miller - The Gospel According to Sam - 20th Anniversary Edition
Q: What has your writing routine been like, given your work as a minister and writer?
I write weekly as a minister and carve out dedicated writing blocks—early mornings, periods of journaling, and then time outside in nature to de-clutter the mind and allow ideas to surface—so discipline and routine are essential.
Animal Writes - Episode 232 William Miller - The Gospel According to Sam - 20th Anniversary Edition
Q: How did you decide which stories to include in the 20th Anniversary Edition?
I started with the Hawaiian Airedale story that followed Sam, then added stories from dogs that came into my life later, selecting pieces that could teach new lessons while staying true to the overall arc of Sam's influence and the spiritual themes he helped me see.
