ISBW S19 Ep29

NaNoWriMo starts tomorrow! Are you participating? Are you ready? Author, editor, and long time NaNoWriMo municipal liaison Valerie Valdes joins us to talk about her new projects and how to tackle NaNoWriMo!

Don’t forget, Chaos Terminal comes out in ONE WEEK.

Transcript

Valerie Valdes 10:08:
…I wonder if there’s like enough NaNoWriMo people at this point who are published writers that it’s kind of lost some of that sheen of the amateur. Somehow I don’t know. But I definitely haven’t heard that as much as I feel like I also would occasionally see that kind of grump on social media. But yeah, I think that, that more and more writers, the benefit of NaNoWriMo, even if you’re a professional writer, and you write 100%, of the time all year round, is that you’re doing this together with other people who are also doing this thing. And even professional writers, a lot of them don’t write 50,000 words in a month, a lot of times, it’s a much slower pace, and it’s spread out over a longer period of time.

This was recorded back in July, but time and things and travel got away with me.

Actually what happened was the fact that I can’t spread podcast production across more than one day. If I do, I will forget it needs to be finished. It’s not great spending 4+ hours to produce and upload 2 shows, but if I don’t, one will fall by the wayside. ADHD brain for the win.

We will be back in september, hopefully with lots of amazing ditch digging.

ISBW S19 Ep28

If you’re a creator, when someone wants to give you money, you say, “yes, please!”

I’m taking a break from podcasting to finish my book. Doing some housekeeping and then presenting an excellent interview with Wole Talabi, author of Shigidi and the Brass Head of Obalufon!

Transcript

Wole Talabi: 19:50- …And I’ve been to the British Museum several times. The last time I was there, I saw a few items in that I really wanted to, like, take with me, including the brass head of Obalufon, which is a real object. … I felt the urge to conduct a heist. So I just decided to write it into the novel.

S9 Ep8
Horny chaotic god energy is what we’re all about in today’s Ditch Diggers, “Data Wonking with Podmother Gail Carriger” where Gail joins us to talk about sifting through data in self publishing. It is some heady stuff, and we discuss tying your self worth to “bad” data and more!

Gail Carriger: 30:30 (ish): My sense of failure will kick in when a reader says I love Gail Carriger. And I didn’t know she had a new book out, that’s when I feel like I failed at my job. I am an author, that’s the one job I had is to make sure that people who liked me can read my new books, right? That’s it.

I Should’ve Been Writing S1 Ep5

It’s September, 2005, and I have breaking news- rewriting was difficult then, and it still is. I’m at a point where I guess I have to just accept some things and move on. It will always be difficult.

ISBW S19 Ep27

Wrestling with the little person in my head who thinks she so smart…

Transcript

Mur Lafferty: 9:50(ish) I feel like the person is telling me that the idea is stupid. Or I shouldn’t write or won’t go anywhere, or I won’t sell it. I don’t feel like that person is a writer at all, I don’t feel like that person is involved with my writing career at all. This is not the editor who will help me look critically at a piece and make it better later. This is just like, some jerk yelling out the car window. Only the car is my head.

Short episode this time, and not having the best brain day. So I’m sharing with you because this happens to everyone.

Transcript

Mur Lafferty: And maybe what I write is crap, but I’ll never know unless I write it. And then I think lies the key. It’s not even allow yourself to write crappy first drafts, It’s: a pro thinks they suck, but they write it anyway. And there’s your Deep Thought for the Day.
