The difficult second novel, with Jennie Godfrey

welcome to series two!

Introducing the second season of In Haste! We are beyond delighted to be back on your airwaves.

In this comeback episode, Charlotte and Alice catch up on how their books, Bring the House Down and Hark: How Women Listen are getting on, now they are mere weeks away from publication.

And, with two books about to be released into the wild, that means confronting what’s next. Namely, the novel-in-progress that Alice has sent over the sea with her husband, and the “difficult second novel” that Charlotte is still trying to get on with. With some wisdom from a writer who has been there, friend of the show

makes a glorious return to discuss the incredible success of her debut, The List of Suspicious Things, and how she’s navigating its follow-up.

You can pre-order Hark here and Bring the House Down here.
