I've been writing fiction and poetry since 2010, and run two writers' groups.
This is a blog to talk about that writing, and to speak to fellow authors.

Finally had my listen! You sound exactly as I expected ;D As we discussed during Erin’s tour I’m actually a fairly bad listener, and it takes me a while to get to things, so if something is purely informational I prefer reading text—but on podcasts with interviews or multiple hosts (or if you were presenting something I didn’t know anything about) I can enjoy the additional layer of personality/humour that comes in.
Well, that’s good to know I sounded exactly as you expected. Who’d’ve thought it?
I think you’re onto something with reading text for informational purposes. I become frustrated when I click on an article I want to read, only it turns out to be a video. By contrast, I’d prefer listening if it’s for entertainment, especially – as you say – for the personality and humour.
