Don't we all want to pursue our dreams? Jack in the day job, and follow our heart? Judi Daykin has done just that, leaving a safe job in computing to study acting in her late 30's. Twenty-plus years later, she's not only a successful actor, she runs her own theatre company, and now a best-selling author of crime novels based in her home county, Norfolk. Judi has now added audiobook narration to her portfolio career, working with Hobeck Books to bring Wendy Turbin's Sleeping Dogs to audio. Also this week, Adrian and Rebecca discuss plans to allow authors to take royalties from second-hand book sales, a Waterstones profit plunge, and our plans to make a splash at the Harrogate Crime Festival.
