The show seeks to illuminate parts of the creative process which are often overlooked, and offer support and encouragement to writers at all stages of their practice.
If you enjoy the show, please let me know @AlexBlott, or by emailing [email protected]. This pilot is to gauge whether people are interested in the concept, so if you want to hear more, even a quick đ on Twitter is enough!
