423: From Substack Serial to Trad Novel with... 41:40

4d ago41:40

It is of course the inimitable, the unconquerable, the inexhaustible Jo Piazza, all of whose adjectives require me to use spell check. I am a long time fan of Jo, and she’s been on the pod before—see also Episode 393, I Want to Sell Books, But I’m Also Writing What I Want to Write. She is the author of, most recently, The Sicilian Inheritance and c…

The Anxiety is Real You can’t swing a Blackwing pencil without hearing another creator worrying about generative A.I.

I couldn’t resist the subtitle, kids, sorry. It’s not that shocking—but Tim’s journey was definitely only for the bold. I’ve known Tim Grahl—or known of him—for more than a decade.

Hi all! Jess here. When I wrote my first book proposal (for The Gift of Failure), I had a foggy idea of what a “comp” was. A book just like the book you want to publish, right? Not exactly. Comps are a really important part of pitching any book - nonfiction or fiction - because it helps an editor understand your vision for the book and consequently…

Bonus Episode: Jess on Constructive Criticism and Pulling Out of an On-Stage Death Spiral 24:02

24:02

About once a season, I have a speaking experience that doesn’t go exactly the way I want it to, but I’ve learned how to keep these experiences (and the negative feedback that can result) from keeping me awake at night while fueling positive change. Well, that once-a-season occurrence happened earlier this fall, and it felt awful. I usually text Tim…

Sarina here! There was a scramble over who got to interview Lyndsay Rush about her poetry, but I raised my hand first.

Is it time for me (this is KJ) to start a new novel? Not quite-quite-quite, but that time is coming.

I just wanted to people to know that I was very serious about pop music. That’s us here. We’re very serious about fun reads—and so grateful …

Our feelings about them are highly personal and subjective. Some of…
