The podcast for wanna-be fiction writers by a writer who’s still learning. Writer Mur Lafferty discusses rejection, cover letters and getting the oomph to keep going.
The four-day headache finally got addressed by the chiropractor today, but the pain and then the doctor kinda kocked off schedule.
Excuses? Yes. But I did write. Just not very much. I need to sit down and plot out the last 15K words. The climax is looming.

Just heard your podcast #2. Good stuff. I looked at Critters a month or so ago, and I didn’t join, because the time I would spend reading & critiquing other people’s work would detract from my own writing time….
What do you think of the concept of podcasting one’s novel? I listened to Scott Sigler’s Earthcore and found it to be a very good presentation, and a good book in general. Would you ever consider doing something similar?

H, critting other people does take time, but it will improve you. I’m going to be a more active critter when I’m done with the final push for this novel.
And podiobooks, I’m not sure. I think I would prefer to go through traditional publishing ventures before releasing it for free. (and I know the podiobooks have looked for - and found - other publishing methods. I’m just saying it’s not going to be the first place I go with my novel.)
