I’m an author who spends a lot of time driving in the course of my day job. I use this time to listen to excellent podcasts like this one by Dani, and consider it a great way to keep up with what’s going on in the world of Australian literature. Thanks for all the work you put into this Dani –the literary community appreciates you!
Only had to listen to one podcast … and now I am hooked! LOVE IT.
Dani is a great interviewer. Insightful and relaxed conversations like you're right there in the room with her and the interviewee. Dani knows the book back to front and knows the right questions to put to the author. She has a great showcase of interviews with some great authors.
