Introducing Auther/Auther – an occasional podcast about children’s literature

Let me explain…

For a while I’ve been wanting to do a podcast and now I have. It’s called Auther/Auther and Episode One: Angela Brazil and the New Girl is now live. If you’d like to listen and if I’ve done it right, then you can find it on all the places where you normally find podcasts. And if you can’t find it there, then I will include a link to it here.

Episode One: Angela Brazil and the New Girl – Auther/Auther

In this premiere episode of Auther/Auther, Daisy May Johnson explores the life and legacy of Angela Brazil: a remarkable voice within early twentieth-century children's writing and the mother of the modern girls' school story.Resources mentioned:Project Gutenberg: https://www.gutenberg.org/Angela Brazil on Project Gutenberg: https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/author/2544Find out more about your host:https://didyoueverstoptothink.com/https://pushkinpress.com/our-authors/daisy-may-johnson/Support future episodes:https://ko-fi.com/A681LN9

Auther/Auther is an occasional podcast about children’s literature and the writers behind it. My focus is going to be on female writers but this will also include diverse voices as things develop. I’m describing it as occasional because it will be (unless somebody provides me with Substantial Funding) and because I think there’s something kind of interesting in doing this sort of thing slowly. Slow content. Rich content. That kind of jazz.

Future episodes will come (occasionally) and I’m still learning how to audio edit (thank YOU for ignoring any rubbish bits) and I’m enjoying the process immensely. I hope you enjoy listening to it as well.
