S3E51 - Chatting With Joanne Harris

In this episode I chat to bestselling author Joanne Harris about bending reality, the allure of the trickster, and managing expectations. Joanne has written - and continues to write - in a variety of genres, from Fantasy to Psychological Thrillers, and in this episode we talk about why these stories have more in common than might first appear. We discuss how genre boundaries don't really exist when you get up close, and how to deal with doubt and anxiety about audience expectations when you start to gain readers. Really, a good alternative title for this episode would be 'How To Shapeshift For Fun and Profit'.
