Great, but slow it down!
This is full of beaut advice on writing and the business of being a writer, but it is really hard to hear said advice at times because for some reason they have sped up the audio until they sound like cartoon chipmunks on cocaine. The two hosts are usually intelligible (though exhausting) to listen to, but some of the interview subjects have voices that just cannot be understood at these speeds. Please slow the recording down. When I'm listening to podcasts, I am doing menial tasks and that means I'm not in a hurry to get to the end of the podcast. I can pause it anytime when I get to the end of whatever I'm doing. I'd prefer not to have to concentrate till my eyes water and keep on repeating sections of the podcast to try to work out what that writer they are interviewing just said. It would be so much better to be able to hear it clearly and have the time to digest the wonderful information.Read full review »

I can safely say that I wouldn’t be the writer I am today without this podcast. Keep up the...Read full review »
