In this podcast, Janet Ellis talks about her first book, The Butcher’s Hook, set in the 1700s. This is a frank and touching conversation, during which Janet discusses her drive to write and how she creates her fictional characters.

She shares the pivotal role of a writing course, how she writes, where, and for whom.

We also hear about her moving second novel, ‘How It Was’ set in the present day and the 1970s. Janet loves meeting readers and enjoyed the Dulverton Literary Festival immensely.
