Show Notes

In this packed episode HM Waugh and Rebecca Higgie discuss The Lost Stone of SkyCity. Waugh shares her top tips on world building and takes us through how NaNoWriMo helped her get her manuscript down on paper. She discusses her latest read, the 'pants wettingly' hilarious Toffle Towers by Tim Harris and James Foley and shows off just how much she knows about goats. In our new phone a friend segment, CEO of Fremantle Press Jane Fraser joins the podcast to give new and emerging authors the lowdown on all things foreign rights.
