Ease Lessons for Writers
In your writing life, no matter how hard you work or how well you plan, things won't always unfold the way you'd hoped. In Ease Lessons for Writers, we explore what gets in the way of our writing, why that happens, and why it matters. Together we learn how to make our writing easier and more joyful. I'm your host, Monna McDiarmid, a writer and coach based in Japan and Nova Scotia.

Ease Lessons for Writers
Jason Craig Poole (Episode 3/3)
About today's conversation:
Today's episode is the final conversation with Jason Craig Poole, a self-proclaimed word nerd who loves language. He believes books have the power to save lives--and credits the magic of books for shaping and saving his own life. He's also a process fanatic who can't seem to get enough when it comes to learning how artists (especially word artists) work and play and create. He refuses to pick a genre and insists on playing in all the sandboxes with at least a dozen projects "in the works" at any moment. His dream is to write words that inspire a reader to want to read MORE words. He lives with his husband and his son in a little house under the trees in Pennsylvania.
Thanks for this delightful conversation, Jason.
Here's the song that Monna mentioned in this episode:
