    Ep 11: Meet the New Wonderfully Bookish Co-Host!

    This episode was originally published on Oct 8, 2019. This episode is a is a very special one, because it’s time to say hello to the new Wonderfully Bookish co-host, Natasha! Creating a podcast is so much fun, but it’s also a lot of work when you do it alone. I have so many topics I’ve wanted to explore and discuss but when it’s just be sitting all alone, trying to ramble to myself for 30 minutes, it gets a little tedious – and I don’t think you’d want to listen to that either. So logically, a co-host is the best way to go. I’m so excited to have someone with me to discuss all things bookish, and hopefully make each episode a bit more interesting to listen to. We’ve got a ton of ideas and I can’t wait to see where the podcast goes from here. In this episode, we discuss favourite books, authors and genres, our thoughts on DNFing books, and we reminisce over our teenage Twilight phase.

    This episode was originally published on April 26, 2019. I talk with fellow book blogger Hollie about all kinds of books: fantasy books, audiobooks, and weirdly formatted books.

    Ep 06: Breaking the Accidental Hiatus

    This episode was originally published on April 19, 2019. After accidentally taking a 4-month break, the Wonderfully Bookish podcast is back and ready to go again!

    Ep 05: Adapting a Book for the Stage with Daniel Ingram-Brown

    This episode was originally published on Nov 12, 2018. I’ve known Daniel Ingram-Brown, this episode’s guest, for a while now and it was a delight to have him on the show so we can have a catch up and you can hear about all the cool stuff he’s up to! Dan is the author of a series of children’s adventure books called The Firebird Chronicles. The first book in the series, Rise of the Shadow Stealers, has been adapted into a stage production which toured at the end of October and the beginning of November. The third book, Through the Uncrossable Boundary, comes out on November 30th. I read a super advanced copy and all I can say is that it’s definitely been worth the wait! In this episode, we talk about the process of adapting a book for the stage, the release of the third and final Firebird Chronicles book, Dan’s upcoming projects, and what his typical day looks like.
