I have this channel to help writers improve their craft. You'll find interviews with authors, from small indie ones to big names like Seth Godin, Derek Sivers, Kerri Sackville, Matthew Dicks, Barbara Serra, and others. You'll also find unscripted rambles, unedited reflections, book reviews, writing tips, stories, rants -- anything to help you become a better writer and creative thinker. You're welcome to join me! I ask more questions than I answer.
