Lara Thompson

Lara Thompson won the first Virago/The Pool New Crime Writer Award for her novel One Night, New York in 2017. This is the first episode of a series following Lara through the process of publication - from her writing life before winning the prize (featuring jealousy-inducing stories of a "Writing Shed"), to discovering she won the prize whilst eating in a Vietnamese restaurant and her experience and journey towards becoming a published author. [Please note there is some background noise at one point in the episode due to building work happening outside!] Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
