  • I’m honestly a little concerned…

    I just finished my 3rd episode and I am officially convinced the creators and host of this podcast have infiltrated my brain, read my mind, and made this podcast specifically for me. Super creepy.

    In all seriousness… I think I may have just realized nothing is wrong with me.

  • Wonderful and helpful…

    This is a wonderful podcast. If nothing else, it will give all aspiring writers the idea that there is no one specific way toward success. Every writer has their own path and they all seem to be different, with the only common factor being extreme persistence. Brian has a knack for getting at the heart of how each of his guests crafts their stories, and presents it all in an honest, heartfelt way.

    I always listen on my way to work and hope I get there early enough to replay certain parts and take notes before I have to start for the day. Both the podcast and HappyWriter have changed my life and my wri... more
