Also... Jack Strange
In this episode I talk to Jack Strange about his debut novel "Look up, handsome" A charming rom-com set in Wales, with a queer love story. This book was a beautiful read and definitely deserves to be televised as a Hallmark film.It's available through all the usual stockists, but as the book's central character is an independent book shop owner, it would be great to buy it from an independent retailer.Full disclosure-I read it on my kindle and then bought the paperback to get Jack to sign it.Also... i bought my paperback from https://gayberystwyth-books.square.site/product/look-up-handsome-by-jack-strange/192?cp=true&sa=false&sbp=false&q=true Hosted on Acast.

A conversation podcast to see how everyday people are so wildly different and so similar all at the same time. In this show I chat to people about the lives they have lead, the plot twists that could have derailed them but ended up getting them where they needed to be. Sometimes heart warming, sometimes inspirational, these talks helped me challenge my own perceptions to the situations around me and hopefully they will do the same for you.So press play and eavesdrop on the tangents I talk through with my guests.
