"Matty, you have been by far the BEST podcast host I’ve worked with. I really appreciate how you don’t just publish your podcast and pray for it to reach an audience. Big kudos! I’ve been on TONS of podcasts and no one has been quite like you. I love how you’ve chopped up the content into bite-sized pieces. That’s brilliant! And, as a guest, it means you valued my time."
Dale L. Roberts, Self-Publishing with Dale
"How much fun do I always have chatting with Matty Dalrymple at The Indy Author Podcast? All of it. All the fun."
Tiffany Yates Martin, Fox Print Editorial
"Totally enjoyable chatting with you today; thanks for making this a fun experience. I've also been in the interviewer's chair so you can believe me when I tell you that you do it very well."

For those of you scheduled to be guests of The Indy Author Podcast--thank you for setting aside time to talk with me! Here is some information to ensure that our conversation is a great experience for us and for your fans and followers, current and future!
  • Unless otherwise arranged, all episodes are recorded via Zoom, and I will post both audio and video. I will edit the conversation, so no problem if you are beset by a case of the hiccups.
  • We will aim for ~30-40 minutes for our chat.
  • The listeners of the podcast are writers and authors, published and unpublished, indy and traditional, so discussion should focus on topics related to the writing craft and the publishing voyage.
  • Find a quiet space where you won't be disturbed by people or pets.
  • Turn off your phone and silence notifications on your computer.
  • Don't rely on the built-in microphone on your computer. You an give very inexpensive mic-equipped earbuds, like these.
  • Since I will be posting video of our conversation, check what the camera will pick up.​ Also consider your distance from the camera--the image below demonstrates good positioning since my guest and I appear about the same size in the video (plus, he has an attractive and non-distracting background).
  • Think of this as a chat over coffee!
  • Once the episode is up, please share it out to your friends, fans, and followers!
 If you would like to propose yourself or someone else as a guest, please contact me here. The listeners of the podcast are writers and authors, published and unpublished, indy and traditional, so topics should focus on the writing craft and the publishing voyage. (This wouldn't be the right forum for book promotion, unless it is on one of those topics.)

In your email, please let me know not only what topic you propose to discuss, but also which episode of The Indy author Podcast is your favorite, and why.

Thank you!
​Matty
