Notes from James:The biggest lie about writing is that it takes years. I've written multiple books in less than a month—including bestsellers. With the right system, anyone can do this.In this episode, I break down how to structure your first book and why your life experience, not your grammar, is your superpower. You'll also hear my take on AI writing, and why your personal story is something no algorithm can ever replicate.Episode Highlights:Yes, you really can write and publish a great book in 30 days. In Part 2 of this writing series, I walk you through the actual systems that make it not only possible—but repeatable.You'll learn four powerful “meta-outline” frameworks you can use to organize any non-fiction book quickly and clearly. I'll show you how I wrote Think Like a Billionaire in under 30 days using one of these frameworks, and how authors I know have launched entire careers with similar methods (some even in just three days). I also dive deep into one of the most important—but most overlooked—parts of writing a book: your first sentence. You'll hear legendary first lines from some of the world's best authors and learn why they work.This episode is a blend of process and artistry—because writing a great book requires both.This episode is sponsored by BetterHelp.Give online therapy a try at betterhelp.com/JAMES and get on your way to being your best self.What You'll Learn:4 concrete frameworks that will help you write a 20+ chapter book fastThe myth of needing years to write a book (and how to break it)How I turned podcast interviews with billionaires into a full book in less than a monthWhy your first sentence matters more than your title—and how to make it irresistibleHow to write with authenticity, vulnerability, and momentumWhy AI can't replace you—and never will—when it comes to storytellingTimestamps00:00 Introduction: Writing a Book in 30 Days00:54 The Four Frameworks for Writing02:03 Example: Think Like a Billionaire05:10 Overcoming Writing Myths13:14 AI and the Future of Writing20:47 The Power of a Strong First Line23:51 Exploring the Opening Lines of Iconic Novels24:14 Ralph Ellison's Invisible Man: A Civil Rights Era Classic25:04 Jack Kerouac's On the Road: A Journey of Rediscovery27:23 Gabriel Garcia Marquez's 100 Years of Solitude: A Nobel-Winning Masterpiece30:54 Kurt Vonnegut's Slaughterhouse-Five: A War Story with a Twist34:20 Jennifer Egan's Welcome to the Goon Squad: A Pulitzer Prize Winner35:25 Charles Bukowski's Post Office: A Tale of Mistakes and Realities38:57 William Gibson's Neuromancer: The Birth of Cyberpunk40:16 The Importance of First Lines in Storytelling42:36 Crafting Relatable and Vulnerable NarrativesP.S.

There's so much to say about the Latin American Boom in literature, but how can we possibly discuss it at this point in time without mentioning Mario Vargas Llosa and his recent passing. And so, as a Colombia-focused podcast, we take a look at this era and these personalities in the literary world, such as Colombia's inimitable Gabriel Garcia Marquez but through the prism of Mario Vargas Llosa. With very special guest Juan E. De Castro, professor of literary studies at Eugene Lang College of Liberal Arts at The New School. Author of Writing Revolution in Latin America: From Martí to García Márquez to Bolaño and Bread and Beauty: The Cultural Politics of José Carlos Mariátegui, among other works, we discuss a variety of topics relating to but not restricted to: 1. The Latin American Boom. 2. Mario Vargas Llosa and Gabriel Garcia Marquez and "that punch." 3. The importance of the Latin American Boom. 4. The end of this literary milestone. 5. One Hundred Years of Solitude - the Netflix version. And so much more, including the Colombia Briefing with Emily Hart.
Why does this press call itself unnamed, how has it succeeded and what are the challenges of being an independent press? Along with asking about the role of multimedia, the vision of challenging the status quo and how the impact of published books is measured, those were the opening questions posed by Michael Krasny to publisher Chris Heiser. A dialogue followed related to the publishing of poetry and the importance of how a book looks and feels and Chris Heiser spoke of bookcases as embodiments of personal histories. A discussion of social media, marketing and book selling challenges then moved forward along with a question from Michael Krasny about a series from Unnamed Press on contemporary women's writing and what Chris Heiser believes the effects Artificial Intelligence will have on the book business and recent actions toward book censorship. What followed was a discussion of five unnamed books Chris Heiser felt were "truly representative" of the literary press he runs, including the classic imprint of an Edith Wharton novel and four other books all, as Michael Krasny pointed out, by academic authors with PhD degrees. Krasny then brought up the essential importance for readers of engagement and the size of different genres as well as John Barth's declaring the death of the novel. Heiser spoke of the diluting power over books of other media, whereupon Krasny asked him what it means to be literary and a rich conversation followed about the role of the reader. This vital and deeply informed and informative conversation concluded with Krasny asking about the role of translation, the influence on Heiser of Gabriel Garcia Marquez and how and why Heiser sought out a career in publishing.
Send us a textWelcome back to The Writing Apothecary and to another return guest and my bestie Peta Hawker, she was one of the first guests on the podcast and I love any chance I get to chat to her. Her process has changed dramatically from when we first recorded this so it's fun to revist it all. Peta's Official BioMy daily grind involves content writing and knowledge management for a large organisation. When I'm not attached to my work computer, I like to squeeze our three cats (much to their chagrin), engage in linguistic wrestling matches with my partner or roll around on my yoga mat. A degree in writing and publishing and a diploma in yoga teaching remind me that I chose to quantify my passions with expensive pieces of paper, but I have no regrets about either one. Fantasy captured my heart when I was young, and it serves as the majority of what I read and write. Let's throw in a good dash of Gabriel Garcia Marquez, a sprinkle of Jonathan Safran Foer and a pinch of Lewis Carroll and we've made a meal fit for my queendom.

What happens when physical therapy enters the high-risk pregnancy unit? Erin Locati, PT, DPT, joins us to break down how acute care therapists can make a meaningful impact on maternal health—far beyond what most expect. In this episode, Erin shares her unique path from chemical engineering to acute care PT, and how her own pregnancies shaped her clinical mission. We explore the misconceptions around bedrest, how to support OB teams without overstepping, and why physical therapy should be standard in high-risk pregnancy and postpartum care. Whether you're a hospital-based PT, student, or someone curious about expanding care for pregnant patients—this episode will challenge assumptions and spark ideas. Today's Guests: Erin Locati PT, DPT erin@risepelvicpt.com LinkedIn Instagram: @erinlocati_pt Guest Quotes: 9:11 “ …So I really felt alone navigating. Kind of my postpartum recovery and my injuries and return to activity and exercise. And then during my second pregnancy, I was diagnosed with a couple serious complications. And again, I just really felt alone and frustrated and not really knowing, well, what does it say for me to do? I don't wanna accidentally hurt my baby by doing too much, and my doctor wasn't super helpful about it. I knew that pelvic physical therapy was a specialty that existed. Where PTs work with pregnant and postpartum patients, but it was really more of an outpatient specialty as far as I knew. And I was in acute care and I wanted to stay in acute care. Yeah. So I thought about, well, how can I help these populations where I am? I mean, all these patients are here in the hospital. Almost everybody gives birth in a hospital in the US. So maybe there's a way that I can provide skilled care in the setting I'm already in to pregnant and postpartum patients, and that's really where it started.” 25:52 “ It's looking at their restrictions and deciding, you know, with your skilled assessment, what level of exercise could they probably be doing within the restrictions they have. And again, going up to the max that it restriction allows them. So that they can minimize the losses they're gonna have from being on bedrest.” Rapid Responses: Do you have any good book recommendations? “… My favorite book, love In the Time of Cholera by Gabriel Garcia Marquez.” You know you work in acute care when… ” You can treat everything. You go from a cabbage to a knee replacement, to a stroke, to a pregnant patient.” Links: https://enhancedrecoveryafterdelivery.com/ https://www.facebook.com/share/g/1DbQbXixy8/ https://pelvicglobal.com/ Connect with our host and the podcast!

Le président sortant Daniel Noboa, tenant d'une ligne sécuritaire et soutenu par la droite équatorienne, a été réélu avec 56% des voix. La candidate socialiste Luisa Gonzalez demande un recomptage des votes. « À l'annonce des résultats hier soir [dimanche 13 avril 2025], les partisans du président Noboa ont fait la fête dans les trois grandes villes du pays », témoigne notre reporter sur place, à Quito, Rafael Moran. Ces résultats restent difficiles à expliquer, précise-t-il : « Le rejet du courant politique de gauche de Luisa Gonzalez, le corréisme, a pu compter (…) Certains analystes se demandent si la politique du carnet de chèques a pu compter : le président Noboa a distribué 14 aides différentes depuis le début de l'année ».Cette élection contestée laisse beaucoup de questions et d'incertitudes, selon Christophe Ventura, directeur de recherche à l'Iris (l'Institut de relations internationales et stratégiques), spécialiste de l'Amérique latine, au micro de Clotilde Dumay : « C'est le signe d'une élection qui ne résout pas la crise politique enÉquateur, sur fond de crise économique et sécuritaire », estime le chercheur. Il souligne des résultats « inattendus », qui marquent la polarisation de la société.« Le recomptage des voix va être très compliqué, car le Conseil national électoral réduit la possibilité de recomptage en fonction de conditions très limitées, ce n'est pas du tout gagné que ce recomptage soit accepté », ajoute Christophe Ventura à notre micro.La mort du prix Nobel péruvien Mario Vargas Llosa. Il s'est éteint au Pérou, à 89 ansMario Vargas Llosa laisse une œuvre considérable, une quarantaine d'essais, de romans et de pièces de théâtre : des textes autobiographiques comme La ville et les chiens, relatant son passage à l'académie militaire où son père l'avait envoyé de force ou encore La tante Julia et le scribouillard, qui raconte sa fuite avec sa tante de quinze ans son ainée. L'auteur avait touché à tous les genres, épiques, sensibles, libertins, fresques historiques. La littérature était pour lui une manière de façonner l'esprit et le monde, détaille le journaliste Olivier Rogez, du service culture de RFI.Grand amateur de politique, ex-candidat déchu à la présidentielle péruvienne, Mario Vargas Llosa, communiste dans les années 50 avant de soutenir la Révolution Cubaine, avait, sur la fin de sa vie, donné son soutien à des candidats populistes d'extrême-droite comme Jair Bolsonaro.Dans la presse latino-américaine, les hommages sont unanimes. El Comercio, journal péruvien pour lequel l'auteur écrivait, regrette la disparition du « péruvien le plus universel », « le plus grand écrivain » du pays. La Republica se fait, elle, l'écho de nombreux hommages nationaux et internationaux au « dernier écrivain du boom latino-américain ». Du côté de la Colombie, El Tiempo se souvient tout de même le lien tumultueux entre Mario Vargas Llosa et Gabriel Garcia Marquez. L'écrivain péruvien avait frappé, à la fin des années 70, son ami Colombien d'alors, mettant fin à leur relation.Dans la presse Argentine, le premier jour de la flexibilisation des taux de change« Le gouvernement cherche à détourner l'attention de ce premier jour sans restriction des taux de change » et préfère insister sur sa rencontre avec Scott Bessent, secrétaire du trésor américain, analyse La Nacion.En Argentine, le dollar est désormais « flottant », entre 1 000 et 1 400 pesos. Pas de quoi entraîner de l'inflation, se sont échinés à démontrer le président Milei et ses proches ce week-end, usant de longs tweets et autres démonstrations sur papier, comme le rapporte La Nacion.Le média Pagina12 n'est pas rassuré : « L'impact de ses mesures est incertain et ne sera connu qu'à l'ouverture des marchés ce lundi [14 avril 2025] », lit-on.Aux États-Unis, le cas emblématique du Salvadorien expulsé par erreur et la politique migratoire de Donald Trump scruté de près par les journaux« Le ministère de la Justice dit qu'il n'est pas obligé de ramener le migrant expulsé par erreur au Salvador », écrit le Washington Post, alors que le président du Salvador Nayib Bukele est reçu ce lundi à la Maison Blanche.Le journal explique comment l'administration Trump interprète en sa faveur la décision de la Cour Suprême. Pour le gouvernement, « faciliter » le retour de Kilmar Abrego Garcia ne reviendrait, en fait, qu'à retirer les « obstacles nationaux » à ce retour. Le tout s'appliquant, selon le gouvernement, uniquement si le Salvador décidait de lui-même de libérer M. Abrego Garcia.« Ces affirmations ouvrent la voie à un nouveau test de la capacité du pouvoir judiciaire fédéral à maîtriser une administration (…) qui s'est efforcée d'étendre de manière agressive son pouvoir exécutif », commente le Washington Post. Par ailleurs, le New York Times publie une longue enquête décrivant comment le gouvernement utilise l'application mobile d'une entreprise pénitentiaire privée pour surveiller les migrants et faciliter leur arrestation. Le Washington Post révèle, lui, que la détention et la révocation du visa de la doctorante étrangère Rumesya Ozturk n'est fondée sur aucune preuve d'antisémitisme ou d'apologie du terrorisme, contrairement aux dires du gouvernement.À la Une du journal des Outre-mers, de notre partenaire de la 1ʳᵉLa Guyane où les maires contestent les chiffres du recensement.

But it's been often said that Gabriel Garcia Marquez's 100 Years of Solitude would be nearly impossible to adapt to the screen, and it turns out...that was not true.In this episode, we talk about the new Netflix limited series of 100 Years of Solitude, what we thought of the show compared to the book, as well as other adaptations that have worked, or haven't worked.What is your favorite on screen adaptation of a book?

It begins with one of the most iconic lines in literature: “Many years later, as he faced the firing squad, Colonel Aureliano Buendía was to remember that distant afternoon when his father took him to discover ice.”“One Hundred Years of Solitude,” Gabriel García Márquez's magical realist parable of imperialism in Latin America, is a tale of family, community, prophesy and disaster. In this week's episode, the Book Review's MJ Franklin discusses the book with his colleagues Gregory Cowles and Miguel Salazar.

After nine years away, Tim Buendia, has made it back to the town of Aracataca - birthplace of Gabriel Garcia Marquez - and it seems timely with a new series based on the author's opus: "One Hundred Years of Solitude" due to be aired on 11 December 2024 on Netflix. Tim, an adopted son of Aracataca, is perhaps singlehandedly responsible for his tireless work in bringing international tourism to the birthplace of Gabriel Garcia Marquez, the Colombian Nobel Prize winning author. And it was all falling into place with tours, a steady stream of visitors and significant press coverage...and then he left. We discuss what this return to "Macondo" or Aracataca means to Tim, how he has been working diligently in the interim years to continue promoting Aracataca, about his poetry and a new art gallery he is inaugurating in the town. Check out the website: https://www.thegypsyresidence.com The Colombia Briefing is reported by Emily Hart.
Two years ago I decided that I hadn't read enough books from countries outside of the US, so I embarked on a journey of reading one book from every country. The journey has been slow as I am not solely focusing on this project. I've made some great progress in Europe and Asia, but Latin America has been a bit of a weak spot for me. Andy has read a few more books from the South American region, so today we are discussing some of the works we've read from these countries, what we think of them.

Send us a textHere's a sampling of the authors and artists that Jake Duzsik of HEALTH mentioned in our conversation: Pascal, T.S. Eliot, William Blake, Vonnegut, Joan Didion, Truman Capote, Oscar Wilde, Thomas Pynchon, Camus, Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Cormac McCarthy. And somewhere along the lines, we discussed postmodern prose. To be clear, Duzsik was not name checking. It reflects how deeply his creative mind operates. HEALTH's latest album Rat Wars is out now.

Cosa ha in comune Ana Magdalena Bach, protagonista di "Ci vediamo in Agosto", con gli altri personaggi femminili di Gabriel Garcia Marquez? Bruno Arpaia, traduttore di questo romanzo postumo e curatore dei meridiani, ci descrive una donna affascinante e libera, nata dalla determinazione dell'autore a raccontare l'universo femminile in tutte le sue evoluzioni. Cambia la società, cambia il rapporto di coppia, ma rimane saldo l'impegno del vecchio narratore colombiano verso una scrittura limpida e tesa, capace di regalarci con straordinaria efficacia tutte le impressioni di un'avventura in un afoso agosto caraibico. Una storia in cui Arpaia, che iniziò a scrivere e tradurre perché incantato dal capolavoro di "Cent'anni di solitudine", vede una grande lezione etica di perseveranza e rigore.Amaranto © 2024 by Giovanni Cascavilla is licensed under Creative Commons Attribution-NoDerivatives 4.0 International.

Lapo Lappin, Inger Enkvist och Ola Wong dricker mezcal margarita och samtalar om Mexikos viktigaste roman. Pedro Páramo har kallats för ett surrealistiskt mästerverk och inspirerade Gabriel Garcia Marquez till att skriva Hundra år av ensamhet. Men Juan Rolfos bok är trots det inte särskilt känd utanför de litterära finsmakarnas kretsar. Nu finns en nyöversättning, och professorn i spanska, Inger Enkvist, ger lästips för den som är nyfiken på Latinamerika.
Richard McColl is a British Canadian journalist, podcaster and hotel owner based in Bogotá and Mompós, Colombia. I've known Richard for at least a decade. I first knew of him from his work as a fellow foreign correspondent covering subjects all around Latin America, writing for international publications. In 2013, we met in person when I was writing for a story about Mompós for The New York Times. It's one of my favorite stories I ever written for The Times because Mompós is such a special place. It's this stunning 500-year-old colonial city on an island in the Magdalena River that was once a major port but was then mostly forgotten as that part of the river stilted up and war cut it off from society. It's a strange, kind of mystical place with so much history and so many stories and quirky characters. It's a place that was a big inspiration for Gabriel Garcia Marquez, the Nobel Prize winning author and you can feel the imagery from his books everywhere there. Richard's wife has family there and he was enchanted by it and ended up buying two of these colonial houses, which he turned into small hotels, La Casa Amarilla and San Rafael. We talk a lot about Mompós and its ghosts and how it's much easier to reach than when I went there and had to take a 10-hour ride in a truck from Cartagena.While I was in Mompós he asked me if I wanted to be on a podcast he just launched, called Colombia Calling, where he interviews all kinds of subjects about Colombia, in English. This was in 2013, and it was probably one of the original podcasts anywhere in Latin America, and honestly, I hadn't even listened to a podcast at that time. It's still going and has now recorded more than 500 episodes. Juli was on a recent episode and they talk a lot about Colombian food and it's a great listen.Richard also runs the Latin News Podcast and he recently started a small publishing company. They are books in English, about Colombia, and includes titles such as Better than Cocaine: Learning to grow coffee, and live, in Colombia, by the writer Barry Max Wills, and Richard has two books forthcoming, a general guide to politics, history and culture called Colombia at a Crossroads, and The Mompós Project, about his life in that incredible place and the stories he has gathered and witnessed. Anyway, it was great to catch up with Richard after all these years.
Hello to you listening in Invercargill, New Zealand!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Story Prompt Friday and your host, Diane Wyzga.From the novel Love in the Time of Cholera: “He allowed himself to be swayed by his conviction that human beings are not born once and for all on the day their mothers give birth to them, but that life obliges them over and over again to give birth to themselves.” [ ~ Gabriel García Márquez]Our rebirth manifests as a story, and another, and another, and another.In my very earliest days as a beginning storyteller I learned 3 lessons that helped develop my role as a “story doula” or midwife to stories.One.

Jej artystyczne motto brzmiało: aby pisać, trzeba żyć! Uwielbiała Virginię Woolf, a ją uwielbiał Gabriel Garcia Marquez, który jej powieść „Diamentowy plac” uznał za najważniejsze hiszpańskie dzieło literackie od czasu wojny domowej. Nazywana jest największą katalońską pisarką XX wieku. Bohaterką tego odcinka Raportu o książkach jest Mercè Rodoreda. Po 5 dekadach od premiery w języku katalońskim jej powieść „Rozbite lustro” ukazała się w polskim przekładzie. To historia pewnego domu na przedmieściach Barcelony, w którym mieszkała pewna rodzina - ludzie i przedmioty tworzyli świat, który za chwilę, wraz z wybuchem wojny domowej miał się rozpaść na zawsze. To także opowieść o mężczyznach, którzy są z kobietami, których nie kochają i o kobietach, które spędzają życie u boku mężczyzn, których nie pragną. Wszyscy niosą w sobie wielką nostalgię, którą odczuwa każdy, kto żył intensywnie i sięga kresu. Zapraszam na opowieść o życiu i dziele Mercè Rodoredy.

KCRW host Chris Douridas was heard declaring some fighting words about Suave Bruta, the debut album by French-Colombian double-bassist and singer Ëda Diaz: “I expect to go several tracks deep with airplay on this. My favorite album of 2024 so far. No skips.” That's a big deal for a DJ who listens to A LOT of music on a daily basis. And we couldn't agree more. Driven by an expansive cultural spectrum that incorporates a mix of woozy Latin American rhythms and romanticism akin to the writings of Gabriel Garcia Marquez, the album makes it hard to choose just one song, but we've settled on “Dulce de Mar.”

P&C drink and review Cru Cab IPA from Big Truck brewery, then invite special guest Longinus to help them discuss a novella by Marquez. This is part of P&C's on-going "shortcut to the classics" series. The book is written by an old man about an old man who is reflecting on his life. On his 90th birthday, the unnamed protagonist -- who is a confirmed bachelor and frequent patron of brothels -- wanted to give himself a night of wild love with an adolescent virgin. The book is about his reminiscenses, but mostly about his relationship with this one girl. The protagonist has lived 90 years with no love in his life, but now, at the end, he falls madly in love with a very young girl, with whom he doesn't have sex. The book presents some deep reflections on love, sex, passion, and jealousy. In one sense, it's a very raunchy and disturbing book, with difficult themes. In another sense, it's an interesting commentary on love.

In this episode of Transposition, poet and playwright Zachary Guerra sits down with host Laura Rensing and Experimental Editor Rebecca Luxton. Zachary's experimental piece “What Are You Looking for?” was published in our Vol. VII: “Flux” issue (2022). In this discussion, we explore how online communities, such as Reddit, have become vital spaces for individuals to connect, share stories, and find solace amidst their grief. From subreddits dedicated to supporting individuals coping with loss to niche communities like those for cat owners taking care of cats with kidney disease, the internet has facilitated unprecedented avenues for collective mourning and support. As traditional forms of mourning adapt to online platforms, questions arise about the future of literature and its capacity to capture the essence of loss in an increasingly digitized world. We hope you'll enjoy! About Zachary Guerra Zachary C. Guerra is a poet and playwright from Berkley, Michigan. His work, "What Are You Looking For" was featured in Exposition Review's 'Flux' issue and is a 2022 'Best of the Net' nominee. His play 'Captcha' will be premiering November 4th at The Soop to Nuts Short Play Festival. His poem 'This is It' will be featured in the upcoming edition of Filter Coffee Zine.
