Podcasts abound in the book world. They can have significant benefits for literary careers and profiles. But they are also hard work, and more fail than succeed. Join Astrid Edwards - host of the lauded literary interview series, The Garret - for a behind-the-scenes look at producing a podcast. This masterclass will take you through the art and craft of podcasting - from that initial spark of an idea to the nuts and bolts of broadcasting - and help you determine if a podcast is the right form for you. While we will focus on podcasts related to writing, editing, reading and publishing, all ideas - from any industry - are welcome.
