Join Us As A Guest

There are many ways to become a guest on Authors’ Alcove. You do not need to be an author — simply a lover of story with something meaningful to share. If you have a perspective, experience, or story that connects to books and storytelling, I would love to have you join the conversation.

If you are an author, you are warmly invited to share both your book and your creative journey. 

Authors are typically asked to record at least two 15–25 minute episodes: one centered on your book and another focused on the broader love of story and the experiences that have shaped your writing. Please come prepared to share a story, book, or moment that has influenced your life as a reader, writer, or creator.

Community is at the heart of Authors’ Alcove, and the more voices involved, the richer the conversation becomes. If you have a friend, fellow author, or book-loving companion you would like to record with, collaborative episode ideas are always welcome. Some guests choose to record multiple episodes individually, while others expand their conversations by inviting a friend to join for additional episodes.

If you have an idea, feel free to pitch it — chances are we can make it happen.
