Matty Dalrymple talks with Tiffany Yates Martin about TAPPING INTO YOUR AUTHOR VOICE, including how many writers mistakenly view voice as an external element they need to find or impose on their work. Instead, she believes that true voice comes from genuinely accessing and expressing one's internal truths, a process that can feel quite daunting. Tiffany emphasizes that an authentic voice is not about adopting a façade but rather about tapping into what is true to the author and allowing it to emerge naturally in their writing.

It's another chapter in The Dialogue Series - A chill ‘n chat with authors, fellow podcasters, musicians, and more. Our guest is Songfacts founder and owner Carl Wiser.If you love classic rock trivia and love finding out the stories behind your favorite classic rock songs and bands, you probably know about the website Songfacts.com. Songfacts is a music-oriented website that gives you the stories behind songs and lyrics, how and when they were recorded, and so much more. You can search by category like songs about cars, songs inspired by movies, songs inspired by the works of Shakespeare. The list goes on and on. It also has a featured quiz, today's top 10 facts, artists, lyrics, and categories, and a This Day In Music calendar.Songfacts also features exclusive articles and interviews. The journalists who work for the site have interviewed thousands of artists and songwriters to get the facts behind the songs, including Greg Prato who has been on the Booked On Rock podcast many times. The site was launched in 1999 by Wiser, a Connecticut rock DJ who created the list as a database to prepare for his radio show before making it a website for all of us classic rock fanatics to visit. It's one of my original favorite music info sites and I'm not alone. In 2002 it was chosen as a "Yahoo! Pick". The August 2004 issue of Men's Journal listed Songfacts as one of the "100 Best Websites for Guys". USA Weekend has praised it as "a virtual Behind the Music". I reached out to Carl to tell us more about the website, some of his favorite stories he's found for the site, his favorite books on rock, and ones he would love to be written but haven't yet.
