Whether you're a new author getting started, an experienced veteran, or a reader who is interested in what happens behind the scenes, each episode offers you insightful info from guests who have forged a successful career with their books.

Expect a fun and relaxed show which is generally PG-13, but occasional R-rated language does occur.
