Megan's Bookish Life had the complete pleasure of having author M.A. Wardell on the podcast. He and I laughed more than we chatted and it makes for a banter filled episode (in the best way!) Matt and I talk about his structured writing process and who helped him get there, having a bad relationship with Goodreads, and how everyone deserves a happy ending, no matter how they appear.

Megan's Bookish Life was joined by the realest down to Earth author, Corinne Michaels, and there was nothing short of inspiration. In this episode, Corinne talks about how she is open to changing the structure of her book series', how she has a "No Roosters" agreement with her house development neighbors, and the passion she has to make her characters the kind of people you'd want to hang out with. PSA: We had an issue with some sound quality during recording. If you hear some robot noises, I couldn't fix them! Please pretend that this episode sounds perfect and it'll all go away! ;) COOL NEWS!
