Inky Dumbbell is a monthly video series I’ve started hosting to talk about writing and writing craft. Short prompts focus on specific parts of the writing process and provide examples, exercises, and challenges to hone our writing skills.
In Guest Episodes I interview poets, novelists, playwrights and more about the writing lessons that have been most useful to them.

Enjoy.
