Crowdfunded publishing with Tom Cox
Why and how Tom publishes his books with Unbound

Tom Cox is on the pod talking about his TWO new books out this year, Notebook (out now!) and Villager (out later!). Tom talks to Steph about the inspiration behind his books, including having his backpack stolen and finding himself stranded in Bristol, the importance of place in his writing (and life) and why he turned to Unbound to publish his most recent work. It’s a funny, informative and honest look back at an unusual career. As Tom says, “I’m a bit hard to sum up.”

Hosted by Steph McKenna and Simon Jones, who also introduce the judges for the 2021 UEA New Forms Award and Laura Kinsella Fellowship (you’ll never guess), plus the brand new Writer’s Toolkit Online courses for poets and fiction writers.
