About The Iowa Fiction Show

Storytelling podcast by, for and about Iowans. New episodes bi-weekly. Hosted by Iowan Kristine, she interviews newbie and veteran authors alike. If you confuse Iowa, Idaho, and Ohio, we won't hold that against you. Tune in, and you'll soon learn the corn and pig state turns out excellent literary fiction and houses that writing university. No big deal, but we are home of "The Music Man," "What's Eating Gilbert Grape?" and the very first Rice Krispie Treat. If you're an aspiring author or have 10 published books under your belt, this podcast is for you. We'll talk with anyone and everyone on this path we call writing and cover all the things: traditional publishing, self-publishing, outlining, writing groups, workshops, plotting, character development, structure, pantser, plantser, writing community, marketing, dialogue, writing resources, editing, rewriting, desperation, pulling your hair out, burning your work, etc. We've all been there. So join us!

S2, Ep. 6: Self-Publishing, Wattpad, Danielle Steel, and "The Rain Song"

Should you self-publish? Are you on Wattpad? Is fear holding you back from showing your writing? Kristine talks about the fear she's been holding onto and what finally made her decide to reveal the first chapter of her very first novel. Note from Kristine: I have so much respect for Danielle Steel. Seriously. Her work ethic is unmatched, and she raised 9 kids! Wow! There is much to learn from her, and I think the most important lesson I've learned so far is that you need to keep writing and working and getting better. -- Sunday Drive by Silent Partner Creative Commons — Attribution 3.0 Unported— CC BY 3.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/...

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍

Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
