Chatting about my favourite things - historical fiction, writing & research
Since releasing Fables & Lies, I’ve been lucky enough to be interviewed on a few podcasts with more lined up in the coming weeks. I’ve learned to overcome my nerves (most of the time) especially when the interviewer asks me about writing, and of course, my love history and research!
Each podcaster has a different slant. Enjoy catching up – take your pick!
