Welcome to Booky! The friendly, snob-free podcast for readers and for writers. Join journalist, writer and presenter Nicola Adam who will be asking authors from across the genre and geographical divides to share their ups and downs on their journey to publication. Plus a few tips for budding authors along the way. At the end of each podcast Nicola will share the latest news and opportunities for writers and book lovers.
Nicola's guest on this episode of Booky is Joanna Nadin, who wrote her first book in the basement of 10 Downing Street during summer recess. Around 100 books later for both children and adults, she's authored the Penny Dreadful series, the Flying Fergus series with Sir Chris Hoy and Joe All Alone (now a TV series). She's been a Richard and Judy bookclub choice, Radio 4 Book of the Year and Blue Peter Book of the Month. She also lectures on creative writing and publishing at the University of Bristol. Her latest novel, A Calamity of Mannerings, has been nominated for the Carnegie medal.
