In this episode, we sit down with author and alumnus, Jacob North. While at Surbiton high school, Jacob was mentored by Stuart Bird our Writer in Residence and Deputy Head of English. A decade later, Jacob has his first book out, ‘Ice Apprentices’ and is working on his follow-up in the series as well as other projects. Reunited after a decade, Stuart and Jacob talk about the writing process and the journey of publishing a novel.
