August 27 PUBLICATION DAY SPECIAL!
A special bonus episode featuring an interview with my co-writer, Amy Smith, all about her work, my work, and particularly about OUR BOOK, released today, August 27, 2026.
There's also a discount code for all Hamlet Podcast listeners - if you buy our book from Bloomsbury dot com, you can get a 35% discount using the code BTGMACBETH35 - and there's also a competition within the episode for a FREE copy. But for that you'll have to listen through.
*Please note: the episode erroneously left out the 5! - so the code in full is BTGMACBETH35
I hope you will enjoy this special chat, and know how grateful I am for your continued support.
