Writing in Progress

The Joy of Tiny Writing: An Interview with Amber Byers from Tadpole Press

Season 1 Episode 54

Justin and Jon welcome a new guest to the podcast this week! Former episode sponsor, Amber Byers from Tadpole Press, joined us for a delightful interview spotlighting the following topics:

-crafting an entire story in just 100 words

-Building a supportive community

-Finding your own path

This interview is unique compared to many our guests, because Amber is on the opposite side of the Writer/Publisher relationship, so her perspective might be new and useful to many of our listeners, and allowed us to explore a few timely topics such as AI submissions in writing contests.

You can get to know Tadpole Press (and their writing contests!) from their welcome page, linked here.


Our episode sponsor this week is, once again, Ryan Fleming! You can connect with Ryan on Instagram at ryan.david.fleming. He's a great friend to have in your corner, and recently helped me with a panicked 10-minutes-to-deadline beta read!
