First dibs go to Reading Envy Readers group members

I have the schedule for the podcast in 2019 pulled together. If you are interested in being a guest, send me a note somewhere with your email address (I need to be able to send you a screenshot so Goodreads email isn't quite sufficient.)

If you would be a repeat guest, you are welcome, in fact I hear from listeners that they like when people return, because it's like a cast of characters.

If this would be your first time, you are welcome. But I've been ghosted a few times this year, so I just ask that first you read through my FAQ.

I'm still shooting for an episode every two weeks, which means I have to find 26 guests a year, roughly. The readalongs and book speed-dating are usually bonus episodes, but in a pinch I have scheduled them as a regular episode.

I'm happy to answer any questions.

I love our reading community! A few days ago I put out a call for podcast guests in Instagram, where I have 1400 followers, and got zero responses. Whether that's timing or algorithm or lack of interest, it's hard to tell.

I put out a call here, where we have 219 members, and had over 10 responses in just a few hours. I'm looking forward to hosting so many of you as guests on the podcast! I did fill the emergency spot but now I am working on filling in a few more spots for 2020; I may ask some of you if you're willing to double up and I may ask some of you consider being put on the calendar for 2021. Bear with me as I wait to hear back from one person before moving on to the next, since otherwise it's very complicated!!

I'm interested in all of you who have responded, I'm just going in the order in which you responded, so please don't take a slight delay as lack of interest.

And thank you! It is definitely readers who make the entire thing possible.

We're not in it for the likes. :)

I'm just a podcast host, standing in front of some readers, asking if anyone wants to come be a guest for an episode in May. I had a guest ask to move their spot to later in the year so they could talk about a new book by their favorite author. How could I say no? But now I do have a spot. If you aren't scheduled for this year and have been a guest before OR if you want to give it a go for the first time, please send me a message!

ETA: I think I have the May date covered but still have half a year to fill so feel free to contact me for a later date.

I still have dates for the second half of the year! Would love to have you back.

Thanks jenny. Can you remind where I find your dates and I'll pop my name down.
