I had the pleasure to talk with Kimi Alexandre for this episode. For those of you who don’t know who Kimi is, she is a podcaster, writer and professional voice actress. And she is the founder of SpecFicDB.com If you have listened to any of the better known podcast fiction out there, chances are good that you have heard her voice. She talks about SpecFicDb, Tale Chasing (her podcast for Urban Fantasy writers), Guardians (another of her podcasts) and Voice Acting. It was a great discussion and I hope to have her on the show again. In the feedback section of the show, I talk about my NaNoWriMo progress to date. NaNo has been another great experience thus far, but […]

Now that Flying Island Press has two issues of their new e-magazine “Flagship” completed and available for purchase, I wanted to talk with Zach Ricks and Scott Roche about how things went. What worked? What didn’t? How could things be better and just how did the writing community do with their submissions? Zach and Scott share a lot of great information about the past and give us an insight into the future of Flying Island Press including the addition of two new magazines in the new year. In the feedback section of the show, I get a question from Darcy which asks, “How do I decide what stories to write? Do I write what publishers are asking for or do […]

I get to talk to Lindsey Grant. Lindsey is the Program Director for NaNoWriMo. She has an MFA in Creative Nonfiction from Mills College and was amazed to find the magical place that is the Office of Letters and Light. The OLL, for those of you who don’t know, is the wholly wonderful place that has conceived both NaNoWriMo and Script Frenzy. We talk about a lot of things including how NaNo started, what some of the NaNoWriMo goals are and how to “win” NaNo. In the feedback section of the show I talk about some the things that have made NaNo so enjoyable for me. Thanks for listening. Show Notes 00:00 — Opening – Get Published Episode 41 – Lindsey […]
