This month, the Writing NSW team has been reading memoir, devouring essays on women’s football in the midst of the Matildas fever, and listening to podcasts that tell stories and discuss writing for video games.

‘I listen to a lot of podcasts, but narrative non-fiction storytelling has a special place in my heart as that is what I like to create as an audio producer. The beauty of it is that you get to work with interviews, writing, music and sound to create something that is crafted and original.’

“You’ve spent all this time writing the book – then, what a lot of writers don’t realise, is you’ve got to go out in the world and talk about it.”

Kate Mildenhall joined us to discuss the ins and outs of hosting a podcast, her favourite moments and biggest challenges, and what she’s learned interviewing her guests about the practice and process of writing and publishing.
