Shortlist with Patrick Newhart

Manish Chauhan built his working life around making time to write. Patrick sits down with the writer and lawyer behind Belgrave Road to talk about the 500-word exercise that changed his writing practice and his debut novel, which follows two people in Leicester whose lives become entangled across an arranged marriage and an unlikely relationship. They also get into writing complicated characters, queer identity, the food that connects us to the people we miss, and New York pizza spots Patrick won’t share.Subscribe for new Shortlist conversations every other Tuesday.READ AND LISTENRead Belgrave RoadListen to Belgrave Road on audiobookMANISH’S SHORTLISTThe Colony by Audrey MageeSocotra, YemenNew York pizzaCREDITSCreator & Host: Patrick NewhartEditor: Sam PelisseroBranding: Chelsea HainesStudios: Ginni Media Studios & Wondir StudiosShortlist on Instagram · Patrick on Instagram · Shortlist on YouTube · Shortlist Library · [email protected] links are affiliate links and may earn Patrick a commission.

Edward Schmit wanted to write about what happens after coming out. For the first episode of Shortlist, Patrick sits down with Eddie, author of the queer tennis romance The Open Era, to talk about discovering tennis as an adult, perfectionism, and learning to be bad at something.
