What writers and speakers provide to the podcast host steers the conversation of the interview. 

Welcome to Your Best Writing Life, an extension of the Blue Ridge Mountains Christian Writers Conference held in the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains of NC. I’m your host, Linda Goldfarb. Each week, I bring tips and strategies from writing and publishing industry experts to help you excel in your craft. I’m so glad you’re listening in. 

During this episode, you’ll learn … How to Create Promise-fulfilling Interview Questions. 

Today’s industry expert is… me! And my wonderful friend and sister podcaster, Kim Stewart. Kim is a podcast strategist for authors and host of the Book Marketing Mania podcast. She helps nonfiction authors reach more readers as a podcast host and guest. When she’s not strategizing with clients, you’ll find her in Dallas enjoying time with her family, and indulging in coffee, caramel, and Friends reruns. 

As part of our Start Marketing When You Start Writing Series, for four episodes, we are covering podcast interview best guesting practices – taken from Linda’s award-winning book, Creating Dynamic Podcasts & Audiobooks – available directly from Linda, her contact info is in the show notes, and on Amazon. 

The best guesting practices we cover are:

• How to Expand the Reach of Your Core Message – Part One on YBWL
• How To Create Your Top Three Interview Topics – Part Two on BMM
• How to Create Promise-fulfilling Interview Questions – today’s topic on YBWL
• How to Create Professional Interview Queries – final episode on BMM next week

Also, something fun… we are broadcasting the four episodes on alternating podcasts – we are on Your Best Writing Life and on Book Marketing Mania.

Linda Goldfarb is a speaker, award-winning author & podcaster, audiobook narrator, and board-certified Christian life coach.

She hosts the Your Best Writing Life and Staying Real About Faith & Family podcasts. She is a clarity and mindset coach for The Biblical Nutritionist Academy, a board member of AWSA, emcee of the Blue Ridge Mountains Christian Writers Conference, and co-founder of the LINKED® Personality Assessment.

Hey, Linda Goldfarb… welcome back to Your Best Writing Life!

Kim: We are cooking up something extra special today…

•  First, we gather three ingredients: topic, audience, and need.
•  Using a talking point template is a great recipe to keep your flow for multiple interviews.
•  Create your media page for interviewers to find you.

Kim: Next time, we will cover how to create professional interview queries on my podcast, Book Marketing Mania
