Books are Back on Telly!

Elif Shafak, Jackie Kay and Julian Clary join me tonight for the first episode of the new series of The Big Scottish Book Club! We’ve been promoted to prime-time: 730pm on BBC Scotland BBC iPlayer.

Making this show is a gift—I get to read books and talk about writing with other writers. It is a load of work but also a joy. So thank you to the team at IWC Media who produce the show and to the folk at BBC Scotland who think books are important enough to be on telly in a peak slot.

This is our sixth series! So thank YOU for watching and sharing.

Here is a link to watch the Big Scottish Book Club online.
