I listened to this podcast, and it has got to be the most enjoyable conference session I’ve ever heard!

Fantastic podcast - it’s great to get a genuinely insightful side from an author rather than the same bog-standard questions…I’ve recently found a social networking site which has quite a few authors posting on (Darren Shan, Sam Taylor, Paul Coelho to name but a few) and they’re apparently aiming to get a lot more. Might be worth checking out for you - try it here Book Army! Sorry for the spammage but I think it’s good!
