Ep.7 Paths to Publishing with Kim Chance

As the landscape of publishing shifts and changes, Kim, Karli, and Jamie discuss the many opportunities now available to writers.

Ep.6 A Good Climax with guest Lily Hammer

This is how it ends, not with a wimper but a dirty joke... Wait. In this episode Kate joins the conversation to discuss what makes the end of a book or story great. And in some cases, not so great.

Ep.5 Starting New Projects

How do you know when to start a new project? So, you've got this idea, and you know you gotta commit sometime, but you wonder if there's a better time to get going. In this episode, Jamie and Karli discuss how they know when to start, the challenges presented, and what that looks like for their current WIPs (Works in Progress). TL;DR: There's no perfect time, let's start now! Or just as soon as we've gathered our beverages. 2¢ Recommendations: The Scourge Between Stars by Ness Brown and The Swordsman and Snake Eyes (Movies) Find us!
