It’s just an interview show. Mostly about the interviewee’s background and the topic of the book. If the subject of the interviewee’s book isn’t inherently useful to writers, expect as little as 2-5% of the episode to be about craft or process.

This show does a great job into diving into the back stories of creatives to understand how they got where they are.

Loved the interview with Dave Asprey! He's an eccentric brilliant guy although exercise does seem to be the cure to a healthy lifestyle too.Read full review »

I will confess that there are very few podcasts that don’t get annoying or boring to me after a while. This is one of them. The topics are reliably interesting, even if I’m skeptical going in, and the host is humble and funny and easy to listen to. I’m an editor and writer, but I think this show...Read full review »

I’ve enjoyed Jon Small’s podcast since the beginning, and my enthusiasm has been growing of late, with so many different angles and fascinating guests… as a writer, I was drawn from the beginning; as a listener, I’m just digging the show!

1) Interrupting the guest 2) telling irrelevant stories of your own 3) referencing yourself

I subscribe to several high-quality writing podcasts, and Jonathan’s obvious talent for interviewing sets “Write About Now” apart from the crowd. He’s affable, funny without being annoying, and genuinely interested in his guests’ stories, backgrounds, and perspectives on craft and career, etc....Read full review »

A great and informative listen about DJ culture but the clips of Jimmy Saville laughing and joking need to be removed. His crimes were deeply horrific.

Specially for those like myself; beginners looking for direction and inspiration through the perspectives of those who came before. I did the right thing; subscribed subsequently.

So many amazing and insightful conversations! I particularly loved your interview with bobette. If I could suggest one thing though, please do away with the musical interludes ❤️ they often really distract from the interview, and it breaks my focus or ‘the magic’ when I’m listening intensely to a...Read full review »
