Ever feel like you're drowning in the endless cycle of creating content when all you really want to do is hide out and write your book?

Whether you are hosting a podcast today or wondering if you have time for that commitment, I can’t wait for you to meet my guest, Mandy Pallock. Mandy hosts the seasonal podcast called Presently Engaged, and is the author of The Question Habit: The art of building resilient relationships with God and others one question at a time.

Mandy and I connected through PodMatch and I couldn’t wait to ask her about her seasonal show, the different ways podcasting can help you as an author, plus tips for first-time authors like myself.
