S7E03 - Our incredibly late new year episode

In a festive episode that - true to tradition is going out in mid-January - we catch up about our own writing, plus we talk to the brilliant Erin Kelly about getting (and staying) published, trends and lessons learned.

Liane, Gilly and Holly talk work/life balance, coming up with fresh ideas, meeting readers, fate, parenting and a whole bunch of other extremely relatable things. 

Gillian and Holly grill Blake Crouch about his journey to publication, getting adapted, becoming a showrunner and coming up with new ideas. 

Gilly and Holly answer a whole heap of quick fire listener questions on plotting, writers' block, the publishing industry, making a living as an author and more!

We chat our Achilles heels, plus chat about reviews and Mastermind specialist subjects, and - what we don't talk about - why our voices are so husky and coldy.

In keeping with all the preceding years, the Honest Authors Christmas and New Year episode is dropping late. Gilly and Holly talk hopes, fears, and book prices.

Gillian and Holly chat to Mhairi McFarlane about getting started, coming up with fresh ideas, bad reviews and Archilles heals.

Gillian and Holly are back, talking about their years, fears and Archilles heals. PLUS in-depth interview with Linwood Barclay on how he keeps writing super hooky bangers, year on year.

Before signing off for maternity leave, Gilly and Holly talk future plans and answer your questions. *Some slightly rude chat so wait until your kids aren't listening*

Multi-million selling author of The Silent Patient and The Maidens, Alex Michaelides, talks process, sudden bestsellerdom and finding renewed joy in writing.
