Watch as a full video episode on YouTubeBenedict Anning is a Surrey-born author and short fiction writer living just outside of Edinburgh with his wonderful cat, Penny. An artist at heart and fan of all things eerie, Ben has a special love for twisty horror fiction where the setting is a principal character and things just aren't quite right. Atomic Coffin is his first published novel.We had a great time chatting with Ben, hearing about his early passion for drawing and concept art, his love for customising video games like Skyrim, and his reintroduction to reading through Game of Thrones. We also talk about how he found success with Atomic Coffin after he deliberately chose to change his approach to writing.Links:Buy Atomic Coffin nowFollow Ben on BlueskyVisit Ben's websiteSupport us on Patreon and get the podcast early and ad-free, along with other great benefits, including a bonus episodes: https://www.patreon.com/ukpageonePage One - The Writer's Podcast is brought to you by Write Gear, creators of Page One - the Writer's Notebook.
