Episode Details

Did you know that your favorite podcast hosts are also writers?

On this week's bonus episode—available exclusively to our supporters on Patreon—we talk all about our various writing processes.

Katy reveals that she has been sobbing while writing lately as she comes to the end of her novel, and prepares to say goodbye to her characters.

And speaking of characters, Tiffany talks about what it's like to have a fully formed character pop up in a scene without any warning.

We chat all about our odd writing habits and quirks, including how to deal with writer's block, whether it's advisable—or even possible—to plot out an entire book in advance, the merciless editing process, and if a story can have a life of its own.

This is just a snippet of the full bonus episode. If you want to hear the whole episode, become part of the Bittersweet Life community by supporting just on Patreon! For as little as $5 per month—less than the price of a coffee in some places—you will have access to multiple bonus episodes every single month, in addition to years of back bonus episodes you've never heard!

You'll hear conversations that would never take place on the main show, you'll be part of our new chat community, you'll have access to Patreon-only content in addition to bonus episodes, and you'll be invited to join us for regular live meet-ups.

But most importantly, you'll be doing your part to help keep this show alive—an independent podcast with no corporate support. (You'll also help keep it virtually ad-free!)
