  • Absolutely Brilliant!

    As an aspiring author, this show provides me with a plethora of information on writing and the publishing process.

    What a delightful series! The conversation between writing friends at different places in their careers is charming. Special guest interviews add to the insider feel; Iā€™ve been learning a lot on the journey with Amie and Kate. (BTW - no discernible issues with the podcast sound quality for me.)

Please - if you are interested in writing, in YA, authors, or simply enjoy hearing two friends talking about creativity - give this show a shot. Itā€™s my personal extra dopamine ... more
