Fantastic podcast that shares Mandi's tips on writerly craft & mindset mixed in with focussed interviews supporting the topics. Mandi has such a down to earth persona drawing you in with patience & understanding. I look forward to each ep.
Description
A podcast about tips, tricks and hacks on all things writing with your host Mandi Kontos - a writer, writing mindset coach and self published author. Each month we tackle a different topic to do with writing and follow it up with a chat with a guest who will put things into perspective and finish off the topic. The Writing Apothecary is the podcast to help you understand the different layers of a novel, one topic at a time.
