JOSEPH HOWSE:

Gabby is a great interviewer, she is well-prepared and original, and our talk captured many themes at the heart of my novel. I was pleased with the production values, too. My publicist found the GabTalks video helpful when pitching my book to mainstream media, including a national TV station which subsequently interviewed me.

LEE WOODMAN:

Not only does Gabby Olczak have an inviting voice and generous spirit, she asks penetrating questions.  As a poet, I was impressed by the depth of her research into my books. Although the prize I won was for ARTSCAPES, she was familiar with the entire “SCAPES” series and inquired about the topics and the techniques I drew on for all five books.

Her questions about what drew me to poetry and what emotions I hoped to invoke inspired me to read several poems from the series – that opportunity made all the difference in an interview about words and their sound. Indeed, I told her that one writer called poetry “mouth music.”

 Having just emerged from IPA’s BookCamp 2024, I am more impressed than ever with the energetic and critical work Ted and Gabby Olczak are doing for writers in all genres. Readers around the world will be the lucky beneficiaries!

BARBARA LANE:

After self-publishing "Broken Water: An Extraordinary True Story," I have had the opportunity to be featured on various media outlets and podcasts. One of my personal favorites was being interviewed by Gabby Olczak on GabTalks. Not everyone possesses the ability to ask thought-provoking questions, especially when it comes to sensitive topics, but Gabby has a natural talent for interviewing and we easily discussed the subject of childhood trauma and healing. Gab Talks played an important role in supporting my passion to raise awareness regarding child abuse by spreading the message to the general public through a powerful voice - GabTalks.
