Today we have Jill Swenson, of Swenson Book Development, on the podcast. She talks about journalism, book development, writing, NaNoWriMo, and gives some book recommendations. I know it's a long one, but's it's worth it! If you need to skip ahead here are some rough chapter markers:
~00:00:00 Intro to Jill; publication and journalism industry
~53:00:00 We start discussing National Novel Writing Month
~01:28:00 Jill gives book recommendations
The typing sounds you hear in the podcast were produced on my Hermes 2000 typewriter. Jill and I discuss attention and how the different methods of writing effect the outcome.
The first Wrimo event is on November 2nd at 6:30. Come for as long as you like—meet other Wrimos, have some snacks, start writing your novel!
There is also a non-fiction writing month during November: writenonfictionnow.com
