BOOKED – A Podcast What’s Got Me On It This Week
If there’s one thing that you, dear readers, know full well that I love, it’s going on an extended ramble about my various niche interests. This is more or less a weekly occurrence here, and always will be.
But WHAT IF that ramble was punctuated with actual insight into my own writing? What if that ramble was in the form of a conversation with another excellent human being? And what if that ramble was not, for once, written down, but was actually in the form of a full-blown audio and video podcast?
That, you would correctly surmise, would be pretty rad. And, if you’re reading this at 6pm GMT/noon CST/some other equivalent time, then that is precisely what has happened.
Hopefully you should actually be able to watch this by the time this post goes live…Indiosyncrasy is an absolutely brilliant project from the absolutely brilliant Saffron Asteria, who has dedicated a considerable amount of her time to promoting, sharing and generally boosting the entire indie author community purely for the love of it. The site – which you should check out – is a hub for hundreds of great authors and all their great work (including some familiar faces) – the social media is full of support for everything we do, and the amazing BOOKED podcast is right above this paragraph. Every week it’s a new interview with a new author from the ever-expanding Indiosyncrasy stable – every week someone new to get to know.
And this week it’s me. I recorded this with Saffron back in November. It was absolutely tremendous fun. It was an hour that alternated between incisive questions about my writing style and my work and extremely silly banter about Sonic the Hedgehog and Doctor Who, and I can’t think of a better insight into me as a person and a writer than that.
So give BOOKED a listen, or a watch, because you can do both thanks to the magic of technology and it’s on all the Spotifies and YouTubes and Apples and Amazons and basically anywhere podcasts lurk in the corners of our vision, ready to strike and feed.
And because it was a good excuse to do it, and because my KDP enrolment periods were ending anyway and I might as well, in celebration of this lovely podcast pretty much all my books are on sale for the rest of the week!

When I’m not rambling about one of my weird interests on this site, I’m usually writing about those difficult times that seem to be most of the time for indie authors: the lack of visibility, the lack of reviews and sales, the lack of respect. This is a hard path to walk. It’s hard to get seen, when there’s so much stuff out there. With Indiosyncrasy Saffron is trying to make it easier for all of us, and we authors can only thank her for that.
