\"\"I haven’t talked too much about the weekly podcast I do with Shawn Kupfer<\/a>. Next week will mark putting out a weekly show for half a year. Our 24th episode will be all about cooking and eating.<\/p>\n

That’s why I don’t talk about the podcast that much, here — what we talk about, more times than not, has nothing to do what I write about on The Juggling Writer<\/em>. But…as Shawn and I begin knocking around ideas about what to do for our celebratory #25th episode, I’ve looked back at what we’ve done over the last six months. And we have <\/em>talked about writing a time or two.<\/p>\n

What I Like about the Internet<\/strong><\/h2>\n

I like the Internet because there are so many things you and I can do with it. I can drop 250 – 1,500 words on a blog entry about writing. I can make a 5-minute video about writing. Or…I can sit with a friend — another writer — and talk about writing for a whole hour.<\/p>\n

The Internet is cool: we all get to pick and choose what format we like best for taking in the information we seek.<\/p>\n

So…if an hour-long podcast is your preferred medium, below are some podcasts I’ve been part of that are all about writing:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>This episode is all about criticism<\/a>: how to take criticism, give criticism, and some personal stories about criticism we’ve faced as writers.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>This episode is all about writing research<\/a>: how we research, the problems with researching too much, and ways to keep your research in order.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>This episode is all about characters<\/a>: examples of good and bad characters, how we approach creating well-rounded characters, and which characters from fiction we want want on our side during the apocalypse!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>This episode is all about world building in writing<\/a>: examples of good and bad world building in fiction, world building in literary fiction, and the way we go about creating the places where are characters inhabit.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>This episode is all about managing time<\/a>. While not totally a writing-related episode, time management is a big <\/em>part of working a day job and finding time for writing…everything The Juggling Writer<\/em> is about!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>This episode is all about being creative<\/a>. Again, not totally about writing, but there are definitely things in this episode that apply to writing.<\/p>\n
