107: Creating a ’cult’ book - with Cailean Steed

<p>We're delighted to focus on another debut author this week on The Hobcast Book Show.<a href='https://www.caileansteed.com/'> </a><a href='https://www.caileansteed.com/'>Caileen Steed</a>'s first novel, <a href='https://www.amazon.co.uk/s?k=home+cailean+steed&crid=1XG1QPEQUAGJ'>Home</a>, a dark tale of a woman escaping the pernicious grip of a cult, has been showered with critical praise. Heat magazine calls it "highly engrossing," and The Scots Magazine says Home is "masterfully written, both enthralling and disturbing in equal terms." Praise indeed. So how does Cailean find the time to write between teaching in a secondary school and busy family life? We speak to them from their home on the banks of the Clyde, in Helensburgh, Scotland.</p> <p>Also this week, we get excited about the prospect of watching Hobeck's own Robert Daws on stage in his latest one-man show, and Rebecca has a go at replacing Adrian as an audiobook narrator - with interesting results... </p> <p><a href='https://www.caileansteed.com/'>Cailean Steed Author</a></p> <p></p>
