How to Write a Book | 10. AN INTERVIEW WITH ELIZABETH DAY

الوصف

In this tenth, rather special episode, of the How to Write a Book podclass series, hosts Sara Collins, Sharmaine Lovegrove and Nelle Andrew turn the microphone around to quiz their friend, executive producer and bestselling author Elizabeth Day, on her life’s work and writing journey. Of course, Elizabeth knows more than most about the trials and tribulations of writing a book - having penned nine of them herself, writing her first novel at 29 and since then working in every form - non-fiction, children’s and screenplays. She has come up against all of the questions we ask throughout this series and, like every writer, she’s travelled a long and winding road along the way. Throughout her journey, she’s received gentle help and guidance from people who saw something in her. This is particularly true of Sara, Nelle and Sharmaine, who have all offered Elizabeth wise literary guidance and are exceptionally qualified to do so. Together, Sara, Sharmaine, Nelle and Elizabeth are your on-hand writing community giving you the push you need to get started on that novel, memoir, or piece of non fiction you've always dreamed of writing. We hope you enjoy our tenth episode. Stay tuned next week for our final two-part discussion on…PUBLISHING. You won’t want to miss it.
