  • Interview: Bill Webb (Part 1)

    Thanks for joining me on this episode of All Things Writing. One of the greatest people I have met in writing is the guy I get to interview today. He shares of his experiences and wisdom so freely, that no mere podcast can contain him. He needed two episodes. Seriously, if you even follow half of his advice, you are going to be doing pretty great!

    Take a listen as we cover all things writing like the publishing world, working with editors, what shows people need to attend, and all other kinds of things. It really is truly an amazing show.

  • Interview: Matty Dalrymple

    Today I get the pleasure of welcoming to the show Matty Dalrymple. We are going to pick her brain on things like framing, podcasting, and tons of other things. Not only is she an amazing author, but she is also the host of the podcast The Indie Author Podcast which I highly recommend, by the way. 

    I feel like we talked about all kinds of different things and in particular we are going to talk about.

    • How did you get to the point where she started thinking seriously about the idea of framing a story?
    • What are the biggest mistakes in framing?
    • What is the largest benefit to framing a story?
    • What would a bare minimum frame look like for a book?
    • In the Falcon and the Owl, how did she include the theme of transformation for her characters?
    • Describe her podcast journey.
    • Where to find her latest works?

  • The trials and tribulations of putting out an audio book, and what to consider

    Did you ever consider your own audio-book? You can actually do many of the of the work yourself. However, you may not necessarily want to.

    Here me talk about my journey down this road and what I learned as I tried to do my own audio-book production. Also, hear a little bit about why I think you may want to consider hiring a professional to do the work at the end of the day.

    Want more info? Check out my friends at https://www.scottellisreads.com/ and they will help you figure out what your next steps are.
