  • This Podcast makes writing a community

    This weekly podcast is my “me time” and it keeps me sane. I love word of the week, Valerie has such humour and warmth in the way she speaks, as if she’s just having a conversation with you as you go about your day listening. The authors featured come from such varied backgrounds and their work covers everything you’d find in your beloved bookstore. I love listening to each authors process because you always get a tiny nugget of gold you weren’t expecting and get to try that with your own writing... more
