  • Summary

  • Hi! I'm Katy - full-time editor, freelancer, and content creator over at author-rescue.com - and this is a creative writing and storytelling podcast to serve as the audio equivalent of my blog posts. In each episode, I talk about different aspects of storytelling that I've learned through my career in creative writing and editing, and how you can apply it to your own medium. Everyone has a story to tell, so here you can learn how to rescue your writing and make your story effective, powerful, and (most importantly) complete.
