We get cheers from chat!
3:04 Let’s Look Back
Pip tried to count Dog Days of Podcasting that Tee did in 2018
Consistency… well not so much our thing….
Episode 1… we started off pretty exclusively about the craft!
And we started with the idea of half hour episodes…
7:23 Types of episodes
We’ve done craft and business episodes
But our most downloaded episode was Episode 59, about Penny Dreadful from a writer’s point of view
Then we’ve covered, marketing, had guests in show, and recorded from events
Then there are the odd ones…
And the evergreen content ‘writers did what now?’
9:29 Let’s talk about guests
Guests… we’ve been very lucky!
Piper J Drake and K T Bryski duke it out for most on show
Nick and Stacia Kelly also been on there quite a few times
Lauren ‘Scribe’ Harris has stopped on by a bit too!
The WINNER IS KT Bryski! (Also involved in beer talk)
Episode 30… what is a writer’s intern? K T came and stayed for quite a while.
We’ve had MK Backstrom, Alex White, Tim Dodge, Spence, Nobilis on the show
14:02 We Tracked Smoky Writers
From the beginning, our beloved retreat was covered. Either there, or a post-retreat review
Our largest guest episode, with all the microphones!
Pip reflects on the fun stuff represented by the Shared Desk
14: 55 Consistency? What’s that??
Sometimes we slipped…
Editing is a thing… we don’t like to just release into the wild
Deadlines and families to come first… podcasting fell by the way side
Some years have been easier than others
We started streaming in 2018, episode 90.
Streaming has kept us more on track
17:28 Memories of past segments

Pip mentions episode 23, where we talked about a writer’s kit and giveaway swag
Tee diverts into Penny Dreadful side rant…
Pip and Tee discuss some of the changes to swag people expect

Print is still alive!
Pip’s patreon got started in the middle of the Shared Desk
36:37 Live shows!
A lot of fun has been had at a lot of conventions
Episode 75 from the SFWA Nebula Awards show. One of Tee’s favs
Our first on the road show, was Author’s After Dark
Demi-Con was a blast, and Tee was Guest of Honor
Alyson Grauer we met there, and has a book out
PC Haring showed us around
40:47 Pip can’t recall and episode
The mysterious episode 45… the world is full of disturbing books
Oh and it was a racist POS
The Shared Desk could be writers behaving badly
41:52 Pip’s Favorite
Episode 51: The ABC
Recorded around the time of the book cover shoot. Featuring Verena Vorsatz and Christina Payton.
Quite a memorable time
46:21 Pip gets the credit
