Fifteen minutes long, because you're in a hurry, and we're not that smart.

Writing Excuses 9.15: Becoming a Writer—Full Disclosure

“What are the parts of the job that nobody told you about?”

Or, you know, WARNED you about…

It’s a question somebody sent to us, and we all had different answers, so Brandon put together a list, and we made a whole episode out of it! We talk about reviews, physical pain, dietary excitement, deadline-driven interruptions, and not having leisure reading time.

But this isn’t just us whining. We also talk about our solutions to these problems. You know, in between the whining.

Homework: Your main character is a writer, and they want to write but cannot because of some completely bizarre professional requirement that we did not talk about in this episode.

Thing of the week: Shambling Guide to New York City, by Mur Lafferty, and narrated by Mur, too.
