The Reluctant Writer
by Rob Radcliffe
The Reluctant Writer is a podcast about the extraordinary lengths one writer will go to avoid writing the book he claims he wants to write. Author Rob Radcliffe talks about abandoned drafts, wildly ambitious plans, the urgent cup of coffee that somehow takes an hour, and the stubborn belief that tomorrow will be a much better writing day. It’s an honest, occasionally sweary look at the writing and publishing life, with excuses exposed and, every so often, actual words written. Writing books. Making excuses. Carrying on.
