Welcome to a new miniseries hosted by author, podcaster and book fanatic, Nick Wasiliev. This is Date With A Debut: shining a light on debut authors, their incredible books and their journeys to publication.

In our third episode, Nick sits down with Karina May, author of Duck a l'Orange for Breakfast. They discuss the book, being picked from the slush pile, dating in the online world, and more.

PRODUCER’S NOTE: Nick encountered small issues with his mic, apologies if the sound quality is variable at times.
