Authors Gavin Pate (The Way to Get Here), Gordon Highland (Major Inversions), Caleb J. Ross (Stranger Will), and Richard Thomas (Transubstantiate) gather to discuss how each approach the task of editing, including ways to make editing fun and tricks to editing easier.

Long ago, way back in 2010, when the world was a simpler place, a group of writers and readers decided to create a podcast which would establish a round-table, literary discussion format for the purposes of imbuing dick and clit jokes into otherwise serious literary discussion. Well, in late 2011, The Velvet Podcast sadly went the way of Surge…wait, what is that? It’s back! But I didn’t feel it right to watch this great content fade away. So, over the next few months look forward to a resurgence of The Velvet Podcast…as much as re-posted archived material can be called a resurgence. Enjoy. And don’t hesitate to add this podcast URL to your favorite podcast subscription app so you can enjoy the wonderful content wherever you may be.
