The Black List's Randy Winston hosts the live visual podcast Read the Acknowledgments. The podcast is designed for book and writing professionals to share their industry experiences and help give writers a clear picture of the ecosystem that is publishing. The series exists in part to fundraise for writers and literary nonprofits in need. We encourage viewers and listeners to make donations to writer support funds such as the Authors League Fund, Hedgebrook, Baldwin for the Arts, and Lampblack's Direct Aid Fund.
