Write-Minded Podcast: Writers Don't Let Writers Write Alone
Write-Minded is the product of two writing communities coming together to support a podcast for writers about writing. Here, as one of She Writes’ founders, I speak to the power of community and why writers don’t let writers write alone. She Writes Press publisher Brooke Warner, NaNoWriMo Executive Director Grant Faulkner, and I talk about why writing is better, more productive, and more rewarding when it’s not a solitary pursuit.
