Today, my very first audio interview with Bill Thompson of The Bookcast went live.  The interview was about my book, Floxham Island.  I’ve never done an audio interview before and I was really nervous about it.  I’ve done quite a few written interviews and they’re fine.  You get an email with questions, you write your answers at your leisure and send them back, voila.  With an audio interview you don’t know that the hell you’re going to be asked, it’s all right off the cuff.

I needn’t have worried though, Bill is lovely and put me at ease right away.  He’d very obviously read the book, some of the questions proved that and our conversation was so different from the usual interview questions.  He gave me an opportunity to talk about how I write and why I write the way I do, my thinking behind it and my feelings about it.  I felt it was an interview as much about me as about the book.
