For the latest Scots Whay Hae! podcast Ali spoke to screenwriter, playwright, actor, and now novelist, Linda Duncan McLaughlin to talk about her debut novel Original Sins, which is published by Into Books.
There was so much to talk to Linda about, but the conversation begins with her describing Original Sins, a novel not easily categorised, and the two then manage to discuss the novel without giving spoilers (also a tricky task).
Linda then talks about writing in different forms, the importance of sharing work with others, creating characters, being surprised where the writing goes, and other fascinating aspects of being a writer.
She also discusses being an actor and how that impacts her writing, the importance of storytelling, her literary inspirations, what the future may hold, and so much more. It was so interesting to be able to talk in such detail with Linda Duncan McLaughlin, someone steeped in culture, and we hope you find this podcast episode equally compelling.
Linda will be talking to fellow writer Chris Dolan at the Tron Theatre in Glasgow on March 6th to launch Original Sins If you aren’t yet a subscriber to the Scots Whay Hae! podcast you can do so, (or simply listen) at iTunes, on Podbean, with Spotify, on MixCloud, or wherever you get your podcasts.
