"I want to make something happen and I just work really hard to do
it," says today's guest Scott Neumyer, a writer and host of the
Anxiety Diaries Podcast. Today’s guest has a voice as smooth as
velvet. It’s a voice you want to listen to over and over again and
you know what? You can! Today I welcome Scott Neumyer to the show.
Scott Neumyer is a writer who has been published by The New York
Times, Rolling Stone, Wall Street Journal, Sports Illustrated,
ESPN, GQ, Esquire, Wired, Men's Fitness, and many more
publications. He is a contributor to the anthology Life Inside My
Mind: 31 Authors Share Their Personal Struggles, which Simon Pulse
published in 2018. He is also the creator and host of the popular
Anxiety Diaries Podcast. He lives in central New Jersey with his
wife, two daughters, and two cats. You can find his work at
scottwrites.com This is the show where I speak to the best creators
about telling true stories, how they’re told, and why it matters so
you can apply those tools of mastery to your own work. I’m Brendan
O’Meara, and this is The Creative Nonfiction Podcast. Scott has
been working hard on his new podcast, Anxiety Diaries, and it’s
raw, it’s honest, and it showcases interesting people across the
mental health-sphere. In this episode we dig into his origin as a
writer, influential writers, lots about the craft of interviewing,
and how to launch a successful podcast. If you dig the show, please
subscribe and leave an honest review on Apple Podcasts. Joe Rogan
doesn’t need anymore. I need them. Me. Okay, CNFers, thanks for
listening, let’s get right into it.
