Wordslinger Podcast

I often tell people that poetry has never been my thing. But I’m learning that I’ve always been wrong about that. Because not only do I find myself reading more poetry, it turns out I’ve been writing my own poetry for years without quite realizing it. That’s not the case with my guest, Vance Monet. He’s a poet and he knows it. And he’s experimenting with something he calls “inversions metaphor,” crafting poems that bring a new perspective to everyday experiences. We talk about that and the San Francisco Forty-Niners (as poetic inspiration) in this episode of Wordslinger.

Cameron Sutter is a kind soul. If you ever get a chance to sit and chat with him at a conference or anywhere else, I promise he’s going to surprise you. He’s an author of fiction, but in his quest to make writing just a little easier for himself he ended up creating software that can make writing easier for you, too. Plottr is a versatile and amazing application that even I, a lifelong and dedicated pantser, have found a use for. We talk about Plottr, otters, and more in this interview.

Johnny B. Truant has been in the DNA of self publishing almost from the start. He’s an author, a podcaster, a reluctant influencers. Great guy, too. And his series, “Fat Vampire,” has been adapted by the SyFy Channel as “Reginald the Vampire.” Success by almost any definition! But is it success by Johnny’s definition? We talk about that, and about the movement and evolution happening in the publishing industry, and what it means to be an “iconoclast author” (or an “artisan author,” if you’re me). This is a great conversation, and I think everyone (even non-authors) will get a lot out of it. Food for the soul.

JD Barker, New York Times and International best selling author, has had one of the most interesting lives and careers I can think of. From the time he was asked to write a Dracula novel by Bram Stoker estate to the time he solved a friend’s murder, and on to a prolific and successful career as a thriller writer, JD’s meandered along a path most of us couldn’t imagine. And then there’s the email… a slip, an accident, someone sent the wrong thing to the wrong list, and controversy ensued. In this episode of Wordslinger we’re diving deep in the history of JD Barker, celebrating the wins and learning from the mistakes.

Michael Evans is a busy guy. Writing books. Recording podcasts. Founding and running a successful startup in the publishing space. And, oh yeah, graduating from Harvard. And yet he still had time to swing by and chat with me about how storytellers rule the world. And I agree.

Story builds brand loyalty. Give your audience a good story and they’re a fan for life. And this isn’t just for writers—this is for content creators, entrepreneurs, even employees. Listen in and I explain. In this episode, I talk about the San Antonio Zoo, Buc-ees, and my quest for the world’s best chicken salad. I also talk about worry and despair, versus the choice of joy and hope. WATCH THE EPISODE ON YOUTUBE: Thank you for reading The Writer_. This post is public so feel free to share it.

Social media is not a sales and marketing tool—it’s a COMMUNITY tool. And if you want to promote something (a book, a business, a service), it’s going to help a whole lot to come at it from that angle. We’re also talking about my “3 things” for this episode. Ever been accused of something you didn’t do? Had someone badmouth you behind your back? Me too. And I think that taps us both into one of the most human things I can think of. This week on the Wordslinger Podcast, I talk about the new show format, and then answer listener questions in Ask Kevin Anything.

The Writer_ is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber. Four years ago, August 2020, I posted the last episode of the Wordslinger Podcast. I didn’t really know it would be the last episode, at the time. But 2020 changed everything for me, and not just in the ways it changed everything for all of us. The pandemic did disrupt things, for sure. But on top of that, Kara and I had started doing full-time van life, traveling the US, moving continuously. My work at Draft2Digital quadrupled at that time. My writing career went through some dramatic changes. And so did I. To be honest, that Fall of 2020 I found myself questioning everything about my life and career. And it all just got to be too much. Now, in 2024, I’m in such a different place, it’s almost like I’m a different person. I left Draft2Digital to be CEO of another company. And I’ve since left that company to go back to writing and creating full time. Kara and I built a house, and we now live in the Austin area. And my writing career has continued to evolve. It’s a new era. I’m a new Wordslinger. And I think it’s time to explore that. What will happen with the show? No idea. I’m winging this, to be honest. I plan to get back to weekly episodes, but I’m experimenting to figure out what that means, exactly. I’m learning a new platform, and I’m testing a new format. One thing you might like, I’m adding a segment I call “AKA: Ask Kevin Anything.” And I mean that… literally anything. What do the ancient Egyptians have in common with the ancient Mayans? Who was the first baseball player? What’s in an Irish Old Fashioned? Which Beetle wrote “Please Please Me?” (since no one realized this was a joke, here is a side note to say “this was a joke.” huazzh!) What’s the best way to write a novel—pants it or plot it? Anything. You can start right here. Just click the button below and ask your question in the comments. I won’t promise to answer every question, but I’ll put some good ones from various places.
