Listen to a podcast, please open Podcast Republic app. Available on Google Play Store and Apple App Store.
A podcast to help you write more, worry less, and share your work with the world.
Hosted by writer Amber Petty (New York Times, Greatist, Bustle, Snooki's blog - jealous?), this show comes in two parts:
Whether you're a freelance writer, a copywriter who wants to do more than figure out new ways to say "Buy Now", or a person who's always wanted to write but never gave it a shot, this show is for you! Each week, you'll write a little, gain a little confidence, and add new tools to your writing tool belt.
A writing tool belt is probably just a pen and a backup charger for your laptop, but you know I mean.
