This podcast follows my journey as a writer, chronicling the ups and downs, the obstacles and revelations, and more. Mostly solo, I record myself chatting about my books and writing journey as I enjoy being outside. Surprise guests may include sheep, chickens, cats, birds, and (hopefully not) my neighbours' dogs. Come along for the ride, and get to know me and my works!
