Inspiring & practical
The hosts do a very good job of getting diverse writers to let their hair down and reflect on their personal experiences of finding their way into writing careers. Thank you, LWS!
Must listen for writers
I enjoy the range of writers interviewed - fiction, non-fiction, poets, children’s authors etc and the topics covered - writing, literature, business, mindset. Every episode is different and I learn a lot even though it’s a very easy and accessible listen
