You'll know by now that we're obsessed with good storytelling here at The Hobcast Bookshow. Our guest this week, author Anne Booth, has a passion for engaging readers, whatever their age. Anne waited until she was 49 before her first book was published, but she's certainly making up for lost time. Her publisher credits include Puffin, Nosy Crow, OUP, Walker Books, Templar, Tiny Owl, Egmont and Lion, and Catnip. Her works range from picture books for the under fives, through to cosy mysteries for adults. Her story is an inspiring one, demonstrating an unrelenting commitment to creativity and a determination to persevere. As Anne tells us, not all her ideas are going to attract interest, but you should never be disheartened or give up.


Also this week, we examine the shortlist for the Theakston's Old Peculier Crime Novel of the year, and we hear how one aspect of publishing is being positively influenced by AI.
