The Story Will Save You
In these usually-bite-sized episodes, we explore the nuances of writing and publishing from the perspective of authors, agents, editors, and those who haven’t quite yet broken in—and how, at the end of the day, it’s the art of storytelling that’ll save us (or obliterate our sanity into dust … it’s a coin flip).
Hosted by Pipeline Artists' Ciara Duggan, Jeanne Veillette Bowerman and Matthew Joseph Misetich.

Author Amy B. Scher: Working Every Angle to Find Publication
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
We talked about so many topics with Amy B. Scher—rewrites, working with a small press, pitching your own book to publishers, and ... the afterlife.
Seriously, she gives the best advice on rewrites we've ever heard. Trust us.
Check out her new book, The Unexpected Afterlife of Salon Rose: A Coming-of-Age While Dead Story (link below).
