Join hosts J.D. Barker, Christine Daigle, Jena Brown, and Kevin Tumlinson as they discuss the week's entertainment news, including stories about ethical concerns with AI, libraries, and an AI prompt left in a fantasy novel. Then, stick around for a chat with Hazel McBride!

My name is Hazel McBride and I grew up in a very small village in Scotland. Being surrounded by forests, mountains, ocean, and incredible wildlife - is it any surprise that I grew up to want to write about magical and mythical creatures? 

I signed with Ciara Finan at the Curtis Brown agency in London in October 2023 and my debut Fantasy Romance; 'A Fate Forged in Fire' was bought by Renegade Books UK and Dell US and will be published May 27th 2025!

​A Fate Forged in Fire is heavily inspired by Scottish mythology and features a sizzling enemies-to-lovers romance that burns hot as dragon fire! Make sure to subscribe to my newsletter for all the latest information below.

​I now live in the Netherlands with my Dutch husband and our border collie Whiskey, but the dream is to one day live on a farm in the Scottish Highlands (yes even in winter!).
