I to hope you get to listen...

On this programme Avril, Gillian and I discuss the importance of books at Christmas and our secret bookish desires. We also consider the pros and cons of eBooks, writers publishing on Kindle and the desirability of a Kindle reader in your Christmas stocking. We also broadcast extracts of books by Avril and myself – The Orchid House (Avril’s novel set in a Cornish Garden and A Woman Scorned (my novel about the legendary Mary Ann Cotton).

Our choices really ranged widely (see below…) Interestingly all except one are  available on Kindle,  so whichever medium you choose we hope you enjoy your Christmas reads.  You might even find a Kindle reader in your stocking!

Happy Christmas, happy reading, happy writing. .. wxx

  1. To 'E' or not to 'E' ? A great question for what is a very contemporary debate!
    I hope people will tune in or catch up with the podcast or i-tunes as I'm sure they'll find the content interesting and stimulating- lots of food for thought, some great recommendations and a very relaxed format with the three way conversation.I enjoyed taking part enormously.
    So big thanks to you Wendy and congratulations on being programme maker extraordinaire - creative designer,host,contributor,editor, recording technician and much more..!
