Recorded: MARCH 18, 2025 Get ready for a must-watch episode of Will Compton and Taylor Lewan's Bussin’ With The Boys, featuring legendary outdoorsman Steve Rinella from MeatEater! The boys kick things off with March Madness parlays and predictions for the NCAA Tournament, their wild Montana trip, and of course yet another heated Michigan vs. Nebraska debate. There’s also talk of our new merch (sign up to save on our newest drop @ BWTB.com)! They then throw back to Will Compton’s wrestling days, and deep dive into Severance talk, NFL news, where Aaron Rodgers will end up, and more. Next, it’s time for the main event—Steve Rinella hops on the bus to share his expertise on hunting, outdoor life, and media. He breaks down what it’s like introducing new hunters to the sport, shares his craziest close calls with death, and talks about the gritty reality of the hunting world. The conversation covers tribalism in hunting, bear species differences, and how Steve built MeatEater into a massive brand. He also opens up about his writing career, adapting to media, and the most surprising guests he’s interviewed. Steve and The Boys discuss balancing fatherhood and the outdoors, and whether he’d ever take a government role in wildlife conservation. Plus, they debate the impact of wood tariffs on the U.S. Grab a Bud Light, sit back, and enjoy this epic episode with Steve Rinella!

What role does a person who writes play as a member of the Body of Christ? How do we honor others and the role they play in the Body, even when that role looks vastly different to ours? And how do we respond when we feel like our role is misunderstood by others?Listen as Josiah, Gabby, and Daeus tease out where our identity comes from as people who live within the Body of Christ, how our actions involve much more than simply the task of writing, and how we can be a blessing to others both within the Body of Christ and in the world around us.Show notes:- Comment on this episode on our blog!- Become a supporter and get access to exclusive Story Embers updates, swag, and more!

“Is it good?”...“Just tell me what to fix.” These are often the ways we've learned to ask for feedback on our writing. Yet, neither of these requests are very helpful when writing your book. In this week's episode, I break down 4 powerful types of writing feedback to ask based on the stage of writing you are in and your writing needs: No response or just “thank you” Pointing or center of gravitySummary and sayback What was almost said and what I wanted to hear more aboutListen as I break down all of these response types, which I have adapted over the years from Peter Elbow and Pat Belanoff's awesome composition book, Being A Writer. Shout out also to my dear friend and former colleague, Dr. Jennifer Buckner, for creating the awesome PDF that gave me a condensed version of what Elbow and Belanoff created in their book.

Working in a job he didn’t like with a bully for a manager, Leif was desperate for a way out. But, nearing 30 and expecting his first child, he didn’t have many options. After discovering copywriting and feeling drawn to it, Leif began freelancing on the side; going to networking events, building up his portfolio with “friend of a friend" gigs, and launching a website, all alongside his full-time job. It’s 11 years later now, and Leif’s made a career out of copywriting. The late nights and weekend-working might be (mostly) a thing of the past, but work still comes with its struggles. As well as being freelance, Leif’s the director of ProCopywriters, a small professional association with over 850 members. He chats to Steve about the story behind his successful side project, including how it runs without a single employee and takes up far too much of his time.

In this week's episode, we talk to Jane Friedman, an expert in the publishing industry who has written with much insight, candor and calm about the business of writing and publishing. In her spare time, Jane writes creative nonfiction, which has been included in the anthologies Every Father's Daughter and Drinking Diaries. Jane describes herself as sitting at the intersection of several communities, giving her a 360-degree view of the changes now shaping writing and publishing. She sees herself as serving as a bridge between these communities. She was so knowledgeable about the publishing industry and about writing, and we loved talking to her about: her tips for which writing-related activities can help to make the most impact in building your persona as a writer, even if you have limited time, why you might make more from your readers than your publisher, why she's optimistic about the potential for writers to make money, tips for understanding marketing yourself as a writer, and the research about writing and money that she wishes someone would do. You can find Jane at her website, her subscription newsletter Hot Sheet (with Porter Anderson), Facebook, Twitterand YouTube (other social media links are on her website). Her latest book is The Business of Being A Writer.

Better yet, what should we be asking instead? We talk about the collision of the day job and writing worlds, being ambitious while female, and what makes us feel like writers. We'd love to know how you feel about Being A Writer. See complete show notes on our website.
