H Meza 19Must listen for writersI enjoy the range of writers interviewed - fiction, non-fiction, poets, children’s authors etc and the topics covered - writing, literature, business, mindset. Every episode is different and I learn a lot even though it’s a very easy and accessible listen

seejenntriLWS Podcast is my favorite go to for inspiationNo matter what these podcasts need fail to inspire to keep writing. I always learn something new or take away a nugget that makes my writing better. Thanks for all the great interviews. My favorite and always excited to find a new one or re listen to a favorite!

janeklearyWonderful ListenI’ve been feeling the nudge to find a writing community and the session with David Whyte was an excellent entry into the LWS world. I particularly loved the last 10 minutes with him. Looking forward to many more podcasts and further involvement and connection with LWS. Cheers!

Ken GuidrozOne of the bestI’m about two years into listening to dozens, maybe by now hundreds of podcasts on the craft of writing. I fancy myself as getting an MFA via podcast. Well, in my opinion London Writers is one of the best: high quality guests, podcasters who don’t talk too much and instead bring out the best in their guest, and hardly anything other than the interview on the podcast. Really really really good.

watcha33Wonderful DiscoveryI found London Writers’ Salon podcast when I google “best podcast for writing” and this one was in the top 10. I listened and my wonderful discovery is their website with all its great resources. The greatest of which is the Daily Writing Hour. I immediately signed up and it’s fabulous. Wherever you are in the world you can join with hundreds of others and write in your own time zone for one hour. There are groups you can join focussing on many different writing genres. Highly recommend London Writers’ Salon.

PaperDollTalesCalling all writing addicts!Kinder humans than hosts Matt and Parul you cannot find. They carefully prep their interviews and draw the best insights out of their guests. Writers of all kinds will find their craft explored with thoughtful, even at times reverential, insights in the LWS podcast. Such encouragement to any of us creating through the written word. Excellent podcasts so far—can’t wait for more interviews ahead!

flee the facility fanVery Useful and MotivatingI have only recently come across LWS but I am hooked. I appreciate how this podcast makes writing accessible and helps me feel like I don’t have to be perfect to be a writer. I particularly enjoyed Holly Bourne being honest that she didn’t thrive during lockdown and how important it is to read to be a good writer. You does a great job discussing the boredom of a story and finding a way to unearth a fossil in our mind. I recommend this to anyone who loves to write and needs some support and motivation.
