Hate the new format
I’ve loved this podcast for a long time, but the new format isn’t working for me at all. It’s jarring to jump back and forth between the query letter and the author’s book—it feels like head-hopping in a novel, which is exactly what the podcast hosts tell listeners not to do! Plus, it can be difficult trying to remember details about the query letter versus the author’s book when they jump back and forth between the two. Overall, this new format feels much less organized and professional than the old format, and I’m much less interested in both the query reviews and the author interviews. I agree with another commenter’s review that the podcast feels more like an infomercial for the authors’ books now. It feels disingenuous, which is really disappointing from a podcast that I loved so much :(

More reviews of The Shit No One Tells You About Writing
I’ve learned so much from this podcast. Bianca has a wonderful way with guests, so I’m both entertained and informed. Cecilia and Carly, in the new “Books with Hooks” segment, have been fantastic, very knowledgeable additions. This podcast is a must-listen for any aspiring author.

Finally I’ve found a podcast about writing with information that I can actually use. Bianca finds a great balance between highlighting her guests’ achievements and personal experience while at the same time getting out information that any writer can apply to their own work.

When I started listening to this I was immediately intrigued. I went back and listened to all of her past episodes. I’m listening to two other podcasts but this is the best one. I’ve learned so much about writing from her and from her guests.
