Transparent conversations with authors, agents, and people in the publishing industry about how to write and sell books. The title is a nod to the famous (potentially misattributed) Hemingway quote: “There is nothing to writing.

Reviews
- Love her speaking voice and topics
Listened to my first episode today based off a video I saw on YouTube. Absolutely loved the episode and I’m not even a writer! Only downside was that the episode was a short version of what’s available on YouTube. I personally prefer podcasts while driving as I can’t watch a YouTube video. Hopefully future episode are full length

Australiaa year ago - The Perfect Amount of Shared Pain!
I haven’t publicly shared this with anyone yet but I decided to write my Lizzie Borden book based on my Substack hypothesis and podcast series so keep it to yourself, lol. 🌹 This is the perfect amount of shared pain that I need to keep myself from feeling so alone during the process. 💜
Apple Podcasts5Gossamer 011United Statesa year ago - Essay fans look out!!
There's a ton of book pods out there, but even after just a few episodes, Courtney Kocak has carved out a niche for herself. She's funny, and occasionally potty-mouthed and irreverent -- and really smart about writing. There's frequently great banter between host and guest. And I love the fact she focuses a lot on memoir and essays too (my favorite forms). Excited for new episodes!!!
