“I listen to a lot of podcasts for writers and this is one of the best. Most of the others focus either on the craft of writing or on the business aspects but this one is a healthy mixture of both. There is plenty of usable wisdom but little blatant advice. It manages to be extremely inspiring...”Read full review »

“The content seems well thought out and engaging. But I’m turned off by the incessant background music. I liken it to the bass playing loudly from the car next to me at a stoplight. All the windows are rolled up but my car still quakes with every boom, boom, boom. The only thing I can do is drive...”Read full review »

“This podcast is full of good advice, but I find the presentation style too choppy. The whole podcast feels like an intro. I keep waiting for the musical interludes to stop and the conversation to begin. It almost feels as though they are censoring her replies by only playing the tiny repeated...”Read full review »

“I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this podcast. Like Shaz, my father instilled in me to “work hard and persevere.” That driving force inspired and spurred Shaz on to write The Closer... Similarly, that attitude and my father’s genes keeps me writing with a purpose. Thank you for being candid....”Read full review »

“The Shaz Khang podcast was an ideal mix of honest, informational and motivational. Now I have a much better understanding of what to expect from a developmental edit, as well as a 10-step To Do list en route to self publishing. Knowing that someone as smart and acccomplished as Shaz made...”Read full review »

“As an editor, I am impressed by how these podcasts illustrate each step of the writing process. While writing comes from the heart, the steps an author needs to take once the first draft is completed are more practical, and they are laid out here in step-by-step fashion. Very useful for authors,...”Read full review »
