  • S5 Ep11: Hamilton Nolan - Publishing laid bare
    For many, the idea of having their book published is an actual dream. A beautiful, glorious, waking dream. But for others, perhaps even most writers, the dream isn't quite as dreamy as people might imagine.So let's draw back the curtain and have a little peek at the actual, unfiltered, no-bull realities of giving birth to a beautiful baby book, with the supremely talented (and honest) journalist and author, Hamilton Nolan.And if you too want to be all professional and authory, you could do a lot worse than getting yourself a copy of Scrivener.It's a brilliant bit of software that honestly and genuinely makes writing easier.Use our cheeky little code FAILING and get yourself 20% off the usual cost! Go to https://www.literatureandlatte.com right now.And you'd assume, wouldn't you, that THAT might be all. Because any more of this aural nourishment could easily result in indigestion.Well no. Sorry, but you should undo your belt a couple o' notches and ready yourself for pudding. Because we've got our brand new feature starting this week.Yep. It's HYPE-WRITER! Where you send us a bit of writing you're real proud of. Could be your novel, could be a piece of flash, could be a short story, could be an article, could be a comedy sketch, could be a play, could be a sitcom episode. OR... it could be a poem, which is what we've got this week from the talented Guy Jones, founder of Hothouse Theatre, Nottingham:https://www.hothousetheatre.com/Insta: @hothouse_theatreIf you'd like to send us a bit of writing you're proud of so we can hype YOU up - send it over to [email protected] with a bit of blurb about it, and you could see your name in lights**Forgive us a bit of hyperbole. x Hosted on Acast.
