Podcasts for Writers
Many fine podcasts are available for writers.
This selection of podcasts was suggested by emerging fiction writer, Amy Young. A business owner with young children, she juggles a busy workday, children, and writng. She likes listening to effective and useful podcasts for writers. Despite a busy life, Amy enjoys the time she spends listening to a variety of podcasts for writers. She explains, "I learn my craft while I do prep the work to make dinner. Or fold clothes. Or do any number of mindless household chores." I was really impressed by these podcast suggestions - they provide high-quality and high-content tools for every writer's toolbox. So thanks, Amy, for pointing me and other writers in a good direction.
