Useful Podcasts for Australian Writers

Useful Podcasts for Australian Writers

Podcasts can be a great resource and energiser for writers and self-publishers. You’ll find different ones suit the different stages of your development as an author, and can also be beneficial for your author business. Not all will suit your style (and you can grow out of them too), but some are incredibly valuable and make a great companion while exercising, doing chores and driving.

Here are some podcasts for authors that I’ve benefitted from over the years.
