What part of writing or publishing needs more honest conversation?

We created The Storyteller’s Shelf Podcast because we wanted authors to feel seen, heard, and understood, not just interviewed or spoken at.

A lot of writers are trying to piece together publishing information from different places, and it can be difficult to know which advice is trustworthy or what step to take next.

We try to ask our guests the questions writers are actually wondering about and share practical resources people can return to after an episode.

What part of writing or publishing do you wish someone would explain clearly, without vague advice or gatekeeping?
