Stella the Tiger
In this episode, I do my first interview! My niece joins me to read the children's book we wrote together, talk about other stories she forces me to write, and then she just gets creepy so we end the episode.

Query Letter
In this episode, as in others, I ramble on far too long, overshoot my 30-minute target time by another 30 minutes, and mispronounce several words, turning query into quarry at one point. I also discuss query letters, what they are, their importance, and several tips I've learned in writing them....

Editing Session - Mike Baker
In this episode, my poor, trusting, innocent friend Mike Baker gave me a sample of a story he's working on to edit. I discuss the editing process, make a few snarky comments, and hopefully, end with Mike's story (and our friendship) none the worse for wear.

Write After 7/25/20 (but recorded 7/26/20)
So, after a very promising Write Before yesterday, I didn't get anything done, so I had an extra writing session this morning and did a Write After at lunchtime. In this one, I discuss writing habits and the importance of failure.

Write Before - Episode 3
Before my writing session today I talk about a trailer for my first book that ended up eerily prophetic, a funny coincidence from my last podcast, and some changes I might make to the podcast going forward. Check out my website at www.tomharwick.com

Write Before: Episode 1
Before starting today's writing I ramble on about my current project, detectives and zombies, writing and procrastination, half-finished projects, and I manage to mess up a reference to Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter.
