Writing From Square One

Written by: Georgia Cabelle & Sofia Marie
  • Summary

  • Hello! Welcome to Writing From Square One: the podcast for those who want to write, but don't know where to start, with Sofia Marie and Georgia Cabelle. We talk all things that come before you get published - from finding your writing community, to motivation, holding yourself accountable and growing brave enough to share your work with others. Georgia is an historical fiction writer based in Perth, Western Australia, who recently completed her 140,000+ word first draft in 8 months. She is an Australian Writers Centre alumni and regularly attends writing groups, workshops and writing festivals. Sofia is the Coordinator of the KSP Writer's Centre in Perth Hills, where this podcast is recorded. She won NaNoWrimo in 2022, writing 50,000 words of her horror-themed novel in a single month; she is also starting her Masters in Creative Writing in 2023. This podcast is proudly supported by Katharine Susannah Prichard Writers' Centre. Find us on our Instagram profiles at @sofiamarie_writer and @georgiacabelle_author.

  • Christmas Wrap-Up - season 2 FINAL episode!
    Dec 1 2023

    In the season finale of Writing from Square One 2, Sofia and Georgia give a run down of their accomplishments over the year, with an emphasis on celebrating both the big and little things, and comparing where you were a year ago to now. They also discuss their plans for next year - including plans for the podcast - and what special Christmas traditions they'll be partaking in this festive season!
    Huge thank you to everyone who has listened to even a minute of this podcast, without you it wouldn't mean a fraction of what it does to us. We also deeply hope that you've learned or discovered something about your writing and yourselves. We will be back in 2024 for a third season, so see you in the new year. Have a fun and safe Christmas break!

  • What Comes After Book One - with David Allan-Petale!
    Nov 15 2023

    Georgia and Sofia welcome another fabulous guest for episode 7 of Writing from Square One season 2: Boorloo (Perth)-based author David Allan-Petale! David published his debut novel, Locust Summer (Fremantle Press) in 2021 and is here to talk all about the tricky balance of creativity, work, family and the always-anticipated, sometimes-dreaded, book two. He graciously discusses his journey post-publication, the uncertainty that comes afterward and what he does to keep himself grounded. This is another episode that gets raw and real, and we are so grateful to have had David join us on our podcast.

    If you would like to support or follow David, you can find him on Instagram @davidallanpetale and on Facebook as David Allan-Petale - Author. You can also join Libby Book Club for WA on Facebook to tune in to David's talks with  authors discussing their newest releases!

  • Which Do You Prefer?
    Oct 31 2023

    Sometimes life gets in the way of writing - and when Sofia and Georgia met up for this episode, it was one of those times. And while word counts may be low, the creativity juices were still high and alive! To scratch their creative itches, the girls have decided to do something special for this episode: a game of "which do you prefer?"

    Writing positions, fonts, first person vs third person, music or no music, the list goes on. This simple episode is designed to keep your creativity flowing even when your time is stretched and you're unable to write - so feel free to play along at home!
