I love Julie’s down to earth style and quiet confidence. I always go away encouraged to be better and do more. Thank you!
I love hearing what writers have to say about the creative process. The StoryADay podcast has so much to offer for artists about moving forward. It’s straightforward and encouraging. As a painter I see so many parallels in the tools needed for success. Julie’s voice is really pleasant and an easy listen. Check it out. She has so much to offer.
Julie has a very gentle and encouraging vibe. Her podcasts have great tips for writers of all types. In general she focuses on short story writers, but novelists and other writers can draw plenty of inspiration from her weekly messages.
Thanks for your insights that honour the messiness of life and writing in the midst of actual (and imagined!) constraints. And love your voice :)
Useful for any kind of writer, non-fiction too.
An excellent motivational podcast to tackle your writing (or other creative pursuits). It has helped me focus and to start finishing!
