Review of WritersFM

My colleague Ann Isik has written a great review of the Internet radio station WritersFM. You can read Ann's review by clicking this link.

WritersFM is one of the family of websites for writers operated by my publishers, WCCL. Others include this blog and my forum.

As well as explaining what WritersFM is about, Ann has provided commentaries on many of the interviews broadcast by the station (and available as podcasts). Here's what she says about the interview with Stephen Jackson, for example:

Stephen Jackson is a children's author and illustrator. He describes the journey to publication of MirrorWorld, an illustrated story book and adventure game written for nine to eleven year olds. The work was five years in development. The goal is to help a character called Seymour save the planet with a miraculous mirror (supplied with the book). Stephen describes his exciting UK book signing tour.

In a way, then, Ann's article isn't just a review, it can also be regarded as a listener's companion, providing additional details about the interviews so you can see at a glance which ones might be of particular interest to you. There is also a list of citations - a bibliography, if you like - for each of the interviewees mentioned, so you can find out more about them and their publications.

Ann has done a great job with this review, which is beautifully written and meticulously researched. If you're at all interested in WritersFM, I strongly urge you to check it out.
