Moving Write Along

Our hosts and crew bid you, our wonderful cadets, a final thank you. As we all speed off in our spaceships, racing into new adventures, we give our final bow and empty the stage for you. Keep writing and keep growing <3

It's the end of our summer season! Our cast and crew reflect on what it took to make three seasons of MWA. Spoiler: it wasn't about the episodes; it was about the friends we made along the way.

Our hosts swapped writing routines! What will a plotter do when she has to pants? Join us for a three-season long full circle conclusion as the hosts force themselves out of their comfort zones.

We wrap up our interview with Lillie Lainoff, author of One For All, by discussing the publishing industry and what changes are needed to make it accessible. What are the consequences of demanding a new book every year from an author? Is this sustainable?

Jazmín takes over the podcast to interview Lillie Lainoff, author of One For All. They discuss French history, self care, and how the publishing industry approaches disability representation. Tune in next week for part two!

While the cast and crew prep some upcoming interviews, enjoy these bloopers and outtakes from our past two seasons (there were many to choose from).

The hosts share what they would tell their younger selves about writing; lessons about querying, how to take advice, and how early success isn't the norm. Also, Ruby crawled out of the well.

Simone sits down to get an English teacher's perspective on the pandemic, teaching, and the struggles that came with shifting to online schooling. They discuss what districts did, how the pandemic disproportionately impacted lower-income schools, and how to keep writing and reading fun in a classroom setting.

Ray and Kat try out weird writing advice, including ice cubes in laps and hanging upside down. Is there any merit to all these weird methods?

In this episode, Kat and Ray (Ruby has now mysteriously fallen down the well) interview TYWI's Pre-Reading department. What are beta and alpha readers, why are they important, and how can you get involved?
