Writer’s Routine is an arts and culture podcast for writers: https://writersroutinedotcom.wordpress.com/
It’s where we chat to some of the world’s most successful authors and find out how they work.
In every episode, Dan Simpson chats to a writer, and takes a sneak peek inside their working day; to get tips, tricks and inspiration for that book kicking around your head.
Some are frantic night-owls, others roll out of bed into their desks, and a few lock themselves away for days in the woods – but none have a regular 9 to 5, and in this podcast, we’ll find out how they’ve managed it.
