Podcasts about our business

Welcome back to the podcast where we "help writers write," and today's important subject is how to "Keep It Simple, Silly."We were planning another cross-country trip recently when we realized we were making our lives harder than they needed to be. Not only did we take a step back, we realized that, hey, maybe other writers would be interested in our homegrown solutions to turn complex projects into simple tasks. These are not original ideas by any means, but we stuck a few good ones into this podcast for your listening pleasure and, maybe, your increased sanity and decreased anxiety.Along with planning the trip and doing things on camera, we're writing and publishing almost every day. "Finding Salvation" is available for presale (links below), and the paperbacks should also be out on March 17, including our bookstore. CC is grinding away at her "Restless Spirits" series with a possible publication date of April 2026. And we have more books coming out after those! (Also, did you know we have our own bookstore?)W're having so much fun interviewing other authors about their books and the craft of writing. The first of two recent interviews included VL '"Tori" Stuart, a retired psychologist & author living in Costa Rica, who shared her journey from psychology to writing, her experiences as an expat, and her insights into the dystopian genre (link). On the NV Author Network, Jade Griffin shared her experience and wisdom on the interplay between tabletop gaming and writing. She also highlighted her upcoming projects and reflects on her past works (link).Here are those links to pre-order "Finding Salvation:"AmazonBarnes & NobleGoogleKoboLots going on!

In our latest episode of the “CC&JT Amateur Hour,” we welcome VL “Tori” Stuart, a retired psychologist and author living in Costa Rica. Tori shares her journey from psychology to writing, her experiences as an expat, and her insights into the dystopian genre.Tori's writing journey began organically, and we mean that in the literal sense. She noticed the absence of a gardening column in a local expat newspaper, so she approached the editor and began writing. This initial foray into writing not only earned her fan mail but also sparked her passion for storytelling. Her first serious writing experience opened the door to novel writing, leading to her latest work, "Zade," her first dystopian novel.Our conversation explores the themes of hope in dystopian fiction, the challenges of marketing books, and the impact of personal experiences on writing. Tori emphasizes the importance of standing against evil and the struggles of crafting a compelling blurb for her upcoming novel. The episode concludes with Tori's reflections on her past and where listeners can find her work.You can find VL Stuart on her website at https://authorvlstuart.com/Tori is on Facebook where she is the group admin for  “Marketing for Indies."+++Cassidy Carson and JT Hume (“CC & JT”) are independent writers, publishers, and co-owners of Two Moore Books, LLC out of Carson City, Nevada, USA.

We here at the “Amateur Hour” invite writers to join us to chat about the craft of writing. This week, KJ Waters shares her journey as a writer, detailing her experiences from the initial inspiration sparked by natural disasters to the challenges of marketing her books. She discusses the evolution of her writing process, the importance of planning in a series, and the influence of her favorite authors.She began her writing journey in 2005, spurred by the dramatic backdrop of four major hurricanes striking Florida shortly after she moved there with her young children. This tumultuous period ignited her creativity, leading her to explore the idea of time travel, inspired by her love for Diana Gabaldon's Outlander series. KJ realized that the excitement of hurricanes intertwined with time travel could form the basis of a captivating narrative. She spent ten years crafting what she initially thought would be a single book. However, as she shared her ideas with friends, they encouraged her to expand her story into a series. KJ also reflects on the balance between creativity and the business side of writing, offering insights into the realities of being an independent author. The discussion culminates in a fun segment where KJ answers unique questions about her life and writing philosophy, leaving listeners with valuable takeaways about the writing journey.You can learn more about KJ and access her books at her website: https://www.kjwaters.com/Her books are available at Amazon, and her social media includes Facebook, TikTok, and Twitter/X. +++Cassidy Carson and JT Hume (“CC & JT”) are independent writers, publishers, and co-owners of Two Moore Books, LLC out of Carson City, Nevada, USA.

Join Reverend Willis Greene as we delve into her sermon "What's Our Business."

For this episode of the "CC & JT Amateur Hour," we discuss the tools of the writing trade. During our professional experience as authors, we've seen a few things, as the saying goes. CC and I took typing classes back in the day, and we've seen and used all flavors of PC word processors up to and including the most recent version of Microsoft Word.We had the recent privilege of interviewing two writers who, in their own ways, represent the yin and yang of the modern set of writing tools and technology. Arnie Bernstein uses typewriters to create his manuscripts, and Kendall Brown uses virtual reality and ChatCGT to support her creative process.CC and I discuss these methodologies and technologies, noting that each has their strengths and weaknesses. We also make clear we do not advocate the illegal use of AI to infringe on the literary artist's creative works. We do try to predict the future which may include platforms like Amazon and Google imposing their technologies and policies on self-published writers.It's a complex issue, and we encourage you to check out Arnie's, Kendall's, and this podcast before flaming us.

We've been blessed to interview authors around the world, and it was a double pleasure for us to interview a Windy City writer. Chicago's very own Arnie Bernstein shares his journey as a writer, delving into the emotional weight of writing historical narratives, particularly focusing on the “Bath Massacre: America's First School Bombing” and “Swastika Nation: Fritz Kuhn and the Rise and Fall of the German-American Bund”.Arnie reflects on the importance of character-driven storytelling and the influence of history on his work. He also offers insights into the challenges of the writing life, the significance of independent bookstores, and the joy of immersing oneself in the creative process. He discusses his unique writing process that involves using typewriters for first drafts.You can learn more about Arnie and his books at his website https://www.arniebernstein.comArnie endorses bookshop.org because it directly supports independent writers.You can also find him at LinkedIn, Facebook, and BlueSky.+++Cassidy Carson and JT Hume (“CC & JT”) are independent writers, publishers, and co-owners of Two Moore Books, LLC out of Carson City, Nevada, USA.

We welcome author Kendall Brown back to the Amateur Hour to discuss the challenges and joys of writing, particularly in the context of dog training. They explore the creative drain and decision fatigue that writers often face, the signs of burnout, and the importance of finding an escape from the pressures of writing.Kendall shares her own innovative tools for inspiration, including the use of AI and immersive environments, while also addressing the role of technology in writing, dog training, and marketing. The discussion emphasizes the value of human creativity and the need for balance in a technology-driven world.Kendall's books have been recognized with awards and numerous positive reviews, and she was a finalist in the 2025 International Book Awards, one of the world's most extensive and prestigious international book awards for mainstream, indie, and self-published titles.Her books, "10 Secrets of a Lazy Dog Trainer" and "Let's Get A Dog!" are available on Amazon.

We talk about our motivations, challenges, and prejudices about our characters having sex in our books. We go deep and, as always, CC and I learn something new about each other, even after 40+ years of intimate monogamy.We ask our fellows writers to chime in on the subject: how far do your character go, and why or why not do you go there?

Happy holidays to all who engage in joy and frivolity at this time of year which, considering the number of celebrations there are, means everyone.We're back from West Sacramento after Thanksgiving with the relations, something we're always happy to do. Added bonus: the trip gave us the topic of this week's podcast: getting outside of our comfort zones.Writers are very much creatures of habits, so sometimes our complacency needs a kick in the pants. For us, that meant two nights in the Embassy Suites where they wait on you hand and foot. We're so used to taking care of ourselves at hotels, so to have someone park our car and carry our luggage was surreal.But busting out of comfort zones gives writers material for their books and maybe, just maybe, fresh energy for their manuscript. Check out our discussion.If you want to us catch in person:Saturday, December 6: Reno Public Market in central Reno.Saturday, December 13: Nevada State Museum in Carson City.Sunday, December 14: Sierra Arts Foundation, Riverside Gallery, in Reno.CC is writing the sequels to her successful #PassionRestored novel with hopes of both books being released in 2026. The prequels to the "Serving Salvation" series that encompasses three novellas are being edited. Target release date: Valentines Day 2026.

On the Nevada Author Network, Nikolai Wisekal discusses the critical decision authors face between writing for creativity and pursuing publishing. He notes publishing is basically a professional promise between a business and a reader, bringing with it their expectations and demands. Creativity, on the other hand, is literary art for the author, allowing the writer to have total freedom over cover art, the manuscript, and associated work products such as blurbs.Nikolai also spends time on the business of releasing chapters via a membership service such as Patreon and the now defunct Amazon Vella. He outlines why releasing chapters one at a time to subscribers can be a challenge, especially to readers who are used to having the entire book in their hands.The podcast closes with an in-depth discussion on how writers can be successful at book signings. Nikolai wrote the attached guide from his own experiences (PDF).+++You can find Nikolai at his website https://nikolaiwisekal.com/He is on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/nwisekalHis Patreon site is https://www.patreon.com/NikolaiWisekalChapters of "Scales and Pages" are available as an audio experience on YouTube at:https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLHFiLw8VXO9ahB1hhbtB1NBxeMDHPHvNE +++Cassidy Carson and JT Hume (“CC & JT”) are independent writers, publishers, and co-owners of Two Moore Books, LLC out of Carson City, Nevada, USA.

Before we dive into the meat of the podcast, we completely forgot to mention that Zoey and Finding Salvation Part One placed as finalists in their respective categories in the 2025 Independent Author Network Book of the Year Awards. To say this recognition is an honor is an understatement. We send our sincerest thanks to our creation team of our fabulous Beta readers, Teri Case and Red Adept Editing. Thank you to everyone who was involved.While we were doing a book signing at Comma Coffee this week, I found that A Sheriff in Nevada received a 1-star written review from a local reader. I like 1-star reviews because it tells potential readers that someone who doesn't know the writer read the book. This particular review gave CC and me a chance to talk about reviews in general. Spoiler: yeah, I pushed back a little.We dropped the price of these e-books to 99¢ on Amazon, Apple, B&N, Google, and Kobo:A Sheriff in NevadaFinding Salvation Part OneFrom Tundra to TiaraHope Knocks TwiceLove and Death on I-80 West#PassionrestoredServing Salvation Book OneThe links to these magnificent works of literary art (

In this episode of our award-winning podcast where we "help writers write," we talk at length about the power of writing a series.Frankly, I never intended to write a series and, in fact, was adamant against them because I felt them to be constricting. I like the "freewheeling" feeling of creating new universes, but then there's a price for creating interesting characters. Readers always want to know what happens to them. Even when I finished the complete "Serving Salvation" trilogy, I got requests for Book Four (face palm).We discuss the pros and cons of doing a series, including the financial cost.Related to that was our talk about the success of our 99¢ sales. We have set the price of Book One of our seven series at that low prices, and the readers responded. At this time, we've only made the change to the Amazon e-books, but we're going to expand that to the other major platforms (Apple, B&N, Google, and Kobo). We'll report back on the results.We chatted about our appearance at the Reno Barnes and Noble, which did not turn out as we had hoped. We did get to watch and talk to people, and CC got all purtified and everything as you can see from the above picture.We'll be at Comma Coffee in downtown Carson City on Veterans Day, Tuesday, November 11, 2025, beginning at 9:00am. A portion of our book sales will to the Nevada Department of Veteran Services Suicide Prevention Program.As always, we want to thank Teri Case and Red Adept for their fantastic service to our cause, and we also appreciate our fan club and roadies, Capa and Dan.Don't forget to check out our online bookstore with a little bit of swag.Thank you for following along and please reach out if you have questions or suggestions.+++Cassidy Carson and JT Hume (“CC & JT”) are independent writers, publishers, and co-owners of Two Moore Books, LLC out of Carson City, Nevada, USA.
