Jason McGlone runs Pencilhouse, a 501c3 organization that helps writers improve their craft and writing practice. They offer a free feedback program, host virtual and in-person writing room events, and publish the literary magazine Zero Readers.

In this episode, I ask Jason about Pencilhouse, his own writing journey, and we share our favorite feedback stories. If you're not a writer, you might want to sit this one out :)
