  • Excellent writing/publishing podcast distinguished by the breadth of its guest base

    Even if you don’t use Scrivener, I’d subscribe to this podcast to just hear in-depth craft, creative and industry observations from an incredible cross-section of writers. Fiction, non-fiction, technical, creative, self-published, publisher-published, the lot. I’ve learned a huge amount. The episodes are short, the conversations are interesting. And if you use Scrivener, you learn some stuff about that, too!

  • The real deal

    This is a genuinely excellent show. Technically, it is content marketing, because we do learn about Scrivener, but it’s a high level interview format in which you first get a lot of valuable discussion about writing with working professionals. Really well done.

  • Great find, this one

    I've been using Scrivener for a couple of years now and I know I don't use all of its features. It's been great to listen to the different authors and their creative processes and how they use Scrivener. I look forward to each interview.

  • More Scrivener information

    I’ve listened to every podcast and enjoyed them all. I like hearing the authors discuss their books by that’s not why I’m listening. I’m a a novice Scrivener user and would love to hear how each author uses Scrivener intertwined with the writing of their story. E.g. “I outlined my story on Scrivener and then went back and …. “ and then describe how, what, and why, the authors did what they did.

    Right now I’m using Scrivener like Word and I know there’s more to it than that. The Scrivener manual... more

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Episode 57: Jonas Enander, Astropyhsicist
Q: How does it feel to be researching something where you know that in your lifetime you will not find the answer?
Jonas feels great and lucky to be a part of the golden age of black hole astronomy, where much is being learned about black holes.
Episode 57: Jonas Enander, Astropyhsicist
Q: Do you believe in multiverse theories?
Jonas is agnostic toward the multiverse theory, seeing it as a belief held by some scientists rather than a proven fact.
Episode 57: Jonas Enander, Astropyhsicist
Q: Is a black hole infinite? Is it a gateway to infinity?
On the surface of a black hole, time can stretch infinitely due to relativity, making them seem infinite in that sense, but the singularity inside is not well understood.
Episode 57: Jonas Enander, Astropyhsicist
Q: Why are black holes black?
Black holes are black because they have so much gravity that not even light can escape, and light signals sent from near the black hole lose energy trying to escape.
Episode 57: Jonas Enander, Astropyhsicist
Q: How did you first get interested in astronomy?
Jonas got interested in astronomy in his early 20s after watching science documentaries and decided to study astronomy at university, quickly developing a passion for it.
