Author and editor Josh Boldt knows how challenging it can be to find a publisher. "It's just really hard to find the exact right fit that you need," he says. "So the person out there that's...feeling that way right now, I'm there with you."

On episode 59, Josh discusses Brown Hound Press, a literary magazine he started partly as a way to reach other writers like him.

He also shares a writing prompt that will help you get out in the world, something that's important to his own creative process.
