Thank you for listening to the Writing Worlds Podcast with Emily Inkpen and Chris Gregory.
In this episode we feature author illustrator and podcaster Adrian M Gibson. Adrian's novel "Mushroom Blues' explores a world in the wake of a devastating war in which the fungal inhabitants of the island nation of Hoppon and its capital city of Neo Kinoko are in dire straits, wracked by food shortages, poverty, and an influx of war refugees.
