The Exophonic Writer Podcast
Hi, I'm Zoe! I'm a Visual Linguist and Exophonic Writer based in Melbourne, Australia. Join me each episode while I podcast my quest to become a published author.
Some topics that will show up in the podcast are:
-Languages and Linguistics (especially about Spanish and English).
-The struggles of writing in your second language.
-Literature (genres and styles that have grabbed my attention)
-Writing techniques, rituals and routines.
-Seeking publication.
-Curation of resources: books, blogs, podcasts, films, websites, apps, talks and more (because in the era of information excess, curation is such a valuable gift).
If that sounds like what you need to hear right now, press play and embark with me in an exophonic creative journey!

21 - SEASON FINALE: I've self-published my first novel and I'll tell you everything I've learnt
Hi, exophonics. I know... it's been a minute.
But I have a really good excuse. I've been working on the publishing process of my first novel: TANGO MASALA!!!
Tango Masala is a psychological coming-of-age drama written in verse, about Bianca, a language teacher living in Buenos Aires and Milan, an Indian businessman bearing a job proposal that will change Bianca's world.
It's available on hardback and paperback, Kindle and Kindle Unlimited. In this episode of The Exophonic Writer Podcast I want to share three valuable lessons I learnt in the process:
1. Don't overcomplicate things.
2. Give yourself plenty of time.
3. Have realistic expectations.
That's a bit generic advice, isn't it? Tune in to find out how these three lessons were relevant in my publishing process. :)
SEE YOU SOON IN SEASON 2! XoXo
