Authors! Tune in to our fascinating chat with Jodie Spiteri-James from the Australian Society of Authors (@asauthors) on the pod this week. She’s behind one of the ASA’s most successful programs - Literary Speed Dating - and has more than 20 years experience in publishing. We chat about the rise of e-books and audio books, how the publishing industry works, how to get published, mistakes prospective authors make and the speed dating pitch events you’ll WANT to get in on.

Podcasting is personal - and smart businesses are starting to get on the bandwagon, as another content marketing avenue for storytelling, thought leadership and sharing expertise. And that’s where savvy freelancers can pick up work - writing scripts, project managing podcast calendars, helping with ideation and guests. Kaching!

Absolutely loved chatting to @melhansche on the podcast - she’s a food writer, critic, editor and even a bar owner (and soon to be deli owner!) We talk to her about:
+ working in Australia on mags such as Donna Hay
+ what it was like moving from Australia to New York’s magazine industry (and how she had to prove herself)
+ her work as deputy editor on the prestigious Food and Wine magazine in the US
+ the differences she’s noticed between magazines in Australia / the US
+ that time she ate at the world’s best restaurants (in a single week)
+ why print is most definitely not dead!
It’s such a fab episode. Get it into your ears where you pick up your podcasts, and thanks for listening 🎧🎙️🍗🍷✏️🗽
Why do YOU listen to podcasts? 👂👂👂

Despite the move to digital, there is still a lot of allure about glossy magazines - and this week, we chat with #HannahJames deputy editor of @CountryStyleMagazine, about
+ what print magazines look for from freelancers
+ how to pitch ideas
+ what magazines pay!
She also takes us through the workload of magazine staff, how it has changed over the years (and why many editors aren’t great at answering their emails). It’s an episode packed full of ideas on how to get your byline in a glossy :)

Are you so nuts about podcasts that your telly viewing has declined? If so, you’re not alone. In fact, Discover Pods’ Podcast Trends Report 2019 found that podcasts are consumed more than TV (66%), social media (59%), and books (75%). Wowsers.

You miss one episode. Then you miss another. And a third. And then... a few weeks go by or a month. You tell your listeners the pod is on hiatus. And although you try, it's really REALLY hard to go back. Podfade affects a heck of a lot of podcasts (because consistency is hard, there's a lot of work involved in making a podcast - and quitting can be really easy when you've got a whole lot of other things on your plate).
If you're in the podfade stage, take heart. Sometimes, a podcast serves its purpose. Or you want to focus on other things. Or try something new. Pushing on when your heart's not in it is never a good idea, right? ❤️
