Write For Your Life Very Meta

In the last ever episode of the Write for Your Life podcast, Iain and Donna talk about how they feel about the show ending and potential book titles for equally potential erotic novels. They also fill in a few gaps in both their writing stories. And that, as they say, is that.

Iain and Donna have an announcement! This is the penultimate episode of the Write for Your Life podcast, as your trusty hopes depart to focus on their own writing lives. You can also find out about Iain's pre-Christmas writing retreat and their ultimate writing aims.

Iain and Donna talk about Author Day and whether publishers really care about us writers, social media and its various pressures and problems, taking your audience with you on your journey, the idea of wasting time and being better at it!

A somewhat thoughtful episode featuring top topics that include the rise of the Instapoets, fiction that fits on an index card, the story behind the making of A is for Angelica the audiobook, Iain's newsletter for writers, and writing in partnership with a fellow author.

Topics include Donna's two-person book club, The Martian, Matt Damon's Face, Iain's favourite album, the concept of favourites in general, Game of Thrones (again), poetry and plagiarism, writing manifestos and reader entitlement.

Write for Your Life is back with a wide-ranging show that includes the end of nudes in Playboy, the end of e-readers, physiotherapy and daily exercise, being a different podcast, book clubs for two, and author parties and bowel movements. It's nice to be back.
