On Writing with Julia Raeside

In our sixth episode of the Eastbourne Literary Festival podcast we had the pleasure to talk with Julia Raeside, debut author of brilliant novel, "Don't Make Me Laugh".

As well as now being a best-selling novelist, Julia Raeside is a journalist and broadcaster who has written for the Guardian, Times, Observer and The Big Issue among others. She makes regular contributions to BBC Radio, including review spots on Radio 4s Front Row and Lauren Laverne’s 6 Music show.

These podcasts are such a joy and we had such a wonderful time chatting with Julia about how she writes, reads and embraces having her brilliant debut novel, "Don't Make Me Laugh" now out on the shelves.
