PAPERCHAIN PODCAST

I'm interviewed by Dan Carpenter on the latest episode of The Paperchain Podcast, talking Chuck Tingle, Hookland, An Unreliable Guide to London and why characters in short-fiction drink whisky rather than gin and tonic.

"I wanted landscape punk, not nature writing" Gary Budden met me in a pub near Old Street for Episode 7. He's the co-director of Influx Press, and an editor for Unsung Stories. Amongst many things we talk about the saviour of genre fiction awards Chuck Tingle, psychogeography, Hookland, and non-places in the city. Gary also chats about the Influx Press books The Unreliable Guide to London, and Imaginary Cities. Finally, Gary reads some creative non-fiction based on a prompt set by the previous episodes guest.
