I listen to a LOT of writing podcasts, but this is one of the only ones that is specifically targeted towards children’s authors.

“I appreciate the concept but the content is pretty thin in this podcast and the host is constantly trying to up sell the audience on products. One episode she read a list of commonly confused homonyms and then pitched whatever product. I don’t even know because I tuned out. Not the best”

“The podcast is way too heavy on the promotion of paid content, to the point that it’s almost not worthwhile. The little content provided is great quality and the host is fun to listen to. The intro music is also a bit annoying after a while.”
