This podcast is a gift to writers and readers. As I count myself among both groups, it’s a must-listen for me each week. Thanks to the hosts for bringing us within reach of so many exceptional authors.
I decided to learn to write fiction as a New Year’s resolution in 2020, and this is one of the first and most useful podcasts I found. I don’t think I’ve missed a single episode in six years. Barbara and Marrie‘s interview styles are different. Still, they’re both very smart, good questioners and adept at getting at least wonderful nuggets and sometimes flat out revelations out of their guests. Don’t miss this.
For readers and writers who love to hear people talk about the craft and the business of books. Barbara and Marrie are highly skilled interviewers that make it seem as easy as two people having a conversation that you’re overhearing from a table nearby. Great stuff.
I have tuned in to this show for 20 years and have loved every episode. Barbara and Marrie are excellent at their craft, and offer priceless insights and writing wisdom via their superb guest interviews.
Terrific podcast for anybody who is interested in the craft writing outstanding
