Structured, practical and well explained, this is such a good companion for writers, especially those of us who need help and support to grow and gain confidence. The interview episodes I find less directly helpful - what I like about the pod is the simple topic by topic format

Gabriela's interview skills get better and better with each episode. She knows how to draw the juicy stuff from authors, and she candidly shares her own fab insights. As a result, I've learned more about the craft of writing than I thought I could. I'm a fan!

What a great podcast for not aspiring and established writers alike. This podcast gives the listener first hands thoughts on how and why an authors have written and approached their book writing - straight from the authors mind. Always something new to learn in each episode - I love it X

This podcast always has great bits of writing advice. Even the interviews that I don't think will apply to me end up giving me something that helps to enrich my writing.

I’m not a regular podcast listener in general by I make time for the DIY MFA episodes. They help immensely to focus my self education (because that’s what writing a novel turns out to be!) and my writing. She’s friendly and casual in her style but digs out excellent content. Highly recommend...Read full review »

A gem of a podcast for writers. While friendly and full of personality, cuts straight to the information you can use. Most weeks Gabriela interviews someone working in the writing/publishing industry to glean tips, perspective and encouragement for the writer-listeners. Experts and professionals...Read full review »

I have a day job in an industry I LOVE and am very passionate about. I love that Gabriela says to honor your reality. I don't have to limit myself to loving ONE thing. How simple is this? We don't love only ONE of our kids so why would we force ourselves to choose one passion or interests??!!...Read full review »

So glad I found this podcast. Great information for any writer. I'll listen to these over and over. The title is perfect, the podcasts spot on without the rambling and foolishness of others I've tried, and her voice is pleasant.

Thank you so much for these podcasts. Some of the points are things I had thought about but I wasn't sure if they worked. Other things were so new to me, I thought, how could I not have learned this before? My confidence shoots up everytime I listen to one of these. Makes me feeI like a real writer.

I am a follower of Gabriela's blog and writing advice, which is great in its own right. And when she indicated a podcast was in her future, I immediately signed up. And have not been disappointed. The knowledge Gabriela has provided so far as hit a few of my own goals, especially about making...Read full review »
