The Bleeders: about book writing & publishing

Courtney Kocak

  • 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

  • Informative & Fun

    So many different ways and methods of the writing process. A great podcast for finding out what style works for particular personalities.

  • 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. 💜

  • 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!!!
