Fifteen minutes long, because you're in a hurry, and we're not that smart.

Writing Excuses often features guests as a way to bring different voices and perspectives to the show. Our show would not be possible without our guests, whose expertise and perspectives are a critical part of the podcast. Below is an inexhaustive list of the many guests we have had the pleasure of talking with.

This page attempts to list every guest who has appeared on the podcast, with links to the episodes they were in, and to their home pages.

It is made of hope, ambition, and many edits.

Also, gratitude. In fact, mostly gratitude.

NOTE: We get a lot of recommendations for books to promote and individuals to interview. If you wish to query us please fill out our contact form. Please consider that we record each episode several months in advance of its air date. We appreciate the interest, and genuinely love meeting new writers and reading new things, but we are only very rarely able to accommodate requests for interviews or promotion and cannot reply to all the emails we receive.
