Eat The Frog
by Authors J.T. Maxwell and Amy Cip
For writers who're juggling life, and writing, and more life, and trying to write, all while trying to life. Most writers aren't this-is-my-only-job-famous, so this is a podcast of two writers who're also that, all while trying to write while having a life (spouse, parent, etc...). Join published authors J.T. Maxwell and Amy Cip to see how they attempt to balance life, and writing, and everything in between. There will be cursing, laughing, and fun.
