We always say we have a jampacked podcast and we\'re usually right. Today\'s fun started at Oh-dark-thirty when JT photographed a hot air ballon over Carson City, only to learn later that a friend and colleague was aboard. We ended up taking pictures over each other without knowing we were taking pictures of each other. We dedicated this podcast to that brave, brave soul.

We take a dive into "Imposter Syndrome," loosely defined as someone who doubts their skills, talents, or accomplishments fearing being exposed as a fraud. We talk at length about how this affects independent writers and people in general, especially with traditional versus independent publishing. We also relate our personal experiences with the phenomenon, and we try to offer possible solutions.
