The Freddie Walk

What can we learn about writing from our dogs?

Dear fellow writer,

Welcome to Swordswings, my podcast series for writers in motion. These recordings are intended for you to listen to when you’re moving around — which is a great way to get your writing moving as well.

Today’s episode is a stream-of-consciousness narration that I recorded during an early morning walk with my little dog Freddie. I encourage you to listen to it while you’re out and about, whether with a furry friend or on your own.

These monthly podcasts are my thank-you gift to my wonderful paid subscribers. Next month, as we move towards the end of the year, I’ll walk you through a playful process of crafting New Year’s resolutions about your writing (and your walking).

As always, I’d love to hear from you in the comments!

Members of my WriteSPACE community will soon be able to download the audio files and transcripts of all Swordswings episodes from a new Audio section in the WriteSPACE Library.

If you’re a paid Substack subscriber but not yet a WriteSPACE member, you can use this special discount code to unlock premium access to hundreds of additional writing resources including live workshops, exclusive videos, whizzy diagnostic tools, and colorful weekly prompts.

Kia pai tō koutou rā (have a great day) – and keep on writing!

Helen
