Episode 48: A literary blind date - with Sarah Manvel

<p>We have a confession to make at The Hobcast Book Show. Our plans unravelled following a medical drama, so we had to launch an appeal for a guest this week at the last minute. Kindly, the brilliant Sarah Manvel stepped in, creating a literary podcast blind date for this week's show. Sarah is a writer and critic, and author of the hilarious semi-fictional account of dates that have gone horribly wrong. As you'll hear, <a href='https://www.amazon.co.uk/You-Ruin-When-Talk/dp/1916413684/ref=sr_1_1?crid=B8TU7JMGB0L3&keywords=you+ruin+it+when+you+talk&qid=1639329613&sprefix=you+ruin+it+wh%2Caps%2C170&sr=8-1'>You Ruin It When You Talk</a> is Sarah's first book, but she's determined that it won't be her last. It's a fascinating conversation.</p> <p>Also this week, Adrian and Rebecca discuss further shake-ups in the indie publishing world, and how supply chain issues are forcing publishers to order print runs 9 months ahead of release dates.</p> <p></p> <p> </p>
