The Joy of Writing
Is writing really a joy? You decide with your host Mark Carew.
Mark is the author of two novels published by Salt (an award-winning independent literary publisher in the UK). The novels are The Book of Alexander and Magnus.
Season 1 of the podcast features in-depth conversations with fellow writers about their novels, discussions of the nitty-gritty of writing, and advice for new and aspiring writers - as in how to write a novel (my most popular episodes).
Season 2 is a chapter-by-chapter narration by me of a self-published novel Beyond The North Wind.

S2E1 Beyond The North Wind Chapter 1
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Beyond The North Wind was the first novel I wrote and was published on Amazon. I thought it would be fun to narrate and serialise the novel, chapter by chapter.
Here is the first chapter. Alexander, a young Englishman, is passing through Norway after the events in Magnus and, before that, The Book of Alexander (both published by Salt). His story will become entwined with that of a Norwegian woman, Anna, who is looking for her missing husband, Emil.
