Fiction Writing Made Easy is your go-to podcast for practical, no-fluff tips on how to write, edit, and publish a novel—from first draft to finished book. Hosted by developmental editor and book coach Savannah Gilbo, this show breaks down the fiction writing process into clear, actionable steps so you can finally make progress on your manuscript.

Whether you're a first-time author or a seasoned writer looking to sharpen your skills, each episode offers insights on novel writing, story structure, character development, world-building, editing, and publishing. Savannah also shares mindset tips, writing routines, and revision strategies to help you stay motivated and finish your novel with confidence.

If you're asking these questions, you're in the right place:

• How do I write a novel without experience?
• What’s the best way to structure a story that works?
• How do I develop strong characters and build immersive worlds?
• How do I edit or revise my first draft?
• When is my book ready to publish?
• What are my self-publishing and traditional publishing options?

New episodes drop weekly to help you write a novel you're proud of—and get it into readers’ hands.

The podcast where standup comedian Logan Cummins sets out to make friends with each and every one of his guests by the end of the episode. Based very loosely on research from psychologist Arthur Aron’s Fast Friends Protocol, each episode will be structured so that the host and his guest(s) build connection gradually through discussion; starting with small talk and becoming increasingly personal as the interview goes on.

Each episode culminates in a moment of truth where Logan sends his guest a metaphorical Friend Request, and the guest must answer if they Accept or Ignore.

Comedy writers Jason Hazeley and Joel Morris talk to people who make comedy about something funny that they love. Guests pick something that makes them laugh. A book, a film, a tv show, a comic, a radio show, anything. Maybe we find out something about how comedy works, or we just giggle until we're finished. Both approaches are valid.
