If you’re new to the podcast, welcome! I hope you enjoy listening and that you’ll subscribe if you do. This episode is a little different than the standard format. Normally I talk to a yarn producer and then speak to a fiber expert about a breed of sheep or a spinning technique or the like. But when I talk to an author about their book, we take the whole episode just talking to one person. As a publisher myself, the intricacies of books and book publishing are fascinating. Don’t worry if that’s not your bag, we don’t spend the entire interview just talking about the publishing process.
