“I was disappointed about the amount of ad on this podcast. A writer must live - okay. But starting a podcast for that? I hear a lot of educational podcasts. Love them. A lot of writers podcasts. Love them. This one may be for a special audience I’m not part of. Sorry.”

“I think that most writers and plenty non writers will get the same high levels of enjoyment and pleasure from Nina Lacoeur’s Keeping a Notebook podcast as I have.

“Sitting down (or going on a walk) with Nina’s podcast is like hanging out with a lovely, gentle, charismatic friend who is willing to share the real deal about writing with you - Nina is such a good teacher, and she shares that here, but it also has so much of her wonderful personality and very...”Read full review »

“This is as calming as meditation and as inspiring as a full writing lecture, but it comes in bites from someone who is as vulnerable and humble about her own experiences as she is knowledgeable about the craft. Whether you’re at the beginning of your journey as a writer or a seasoned pro, this is...”Read full review »

“I didn’t think I would like the format initially—Lacour reads pre-written notes, as opposed to the spontaneous interviews that I’m used to on other podcasts. But her voice is so soothing, just like her message that your stories can take as long as they have to, and that there is an audience for...”Read full review »
