Love this podcast. It’s a daily source of inspiration for my next read and for my writing. Go on, give it a listen.

I appreciate the depth of these exchanges. Each guest seems grateful for how thoughtful the interview goes. Such a benefit for us writers in the trenches. Thank you.

I’ve tried many interview podcasts, but I keep coming back to this one. The interviewer really does her research, and strikes such a friendly tone with the authors, that I usually hear insights that you don’t get from other interviews. She also regularly interviews literary heavy hitters and prize winners, which I personally prefer to brand new authors.

This podcast is such a treat. The dialogue between Mitzi and the authors is so thoughtful and insightful. The process of writing has become so fascinating to me (a reader), and this podcast is a beautiful window into the craft of writing.

Mitzi has a pitch perfect interview presence and she asks the questions I wish I could ask in addition to clearly putting a lot of thought and effort into the interviews and honoring the authors’ work. I just became a supporter!

I’m a writer. When I get stuck, I fire up this podcast and go on a walk. It’s so helpful to hear how successful writers tackle their craft. I always end up with new ideas and energy.

So many rich inquiries and great conversations. This podcast has become an integral part of my everyday, and feel like it keeps me connected to questions I ask as a writer and artist. Mitzi’s such a terrific reader and her questions show her depth and the voluminous research time she spent on each author. Such a treat!

Sincere and smart conversation about books, the craft of writing and life.

Incredible … I cannot imagine a more thoughtful, thorough and graceful interviewer. Mitzi Rapkin adds layers to the literary experience I have with many of my favorite writers and those I have yet to discover. Thank you, Mitzi … for getting me into the secret lives and the “why” of our favorite scribes.

As a writer, this is the podcast to learn from. Mitzi is a generous interviewer and that is what it take to be a great teacher. I highly encourage this podcast if you are a writer.
