Welcome to The Green Writer Show with Brett Harris and S. D. Smith

Writing Advice from Friends You Trust.

The Green Writer is a show where we give young writers the green light to go—and help you grow, like a green, living thing.

You are becoming a writer who creates and shares excellent work, and we’re here to help.

Brett is the bestselling author of Do Hard Things and has been teaching young writers how to succeed for many years. S. D. Smith (Sam) is the bestselling author of the beloved Green Ember Series and has turned his writing into a full-time career. We love sharing helpful advice and a few laughs with young writers.

So we decided to launch The Green Writer Show for young writers and the people who care about them. Being passionate about writing as a young person can be isolating, and there aren’t a lot of resources designed for you.

We’re going to talk about things like the best way to practice writing, how to balance discipline and rest, dealing with comparison and self-doubt, and non-writing habits that help us become better writers.
