I’ve got two podcasts, and I love them both hard.
Lesbians Who Write is a weekly show hosted by myself and TB Markinson. Our aim? To draw back the curtain on the writer’s life, make you laugh and chat about lesbian fiction. The podcast has its own website which you can find here. Subscribe by going here.
The Lesbian Book Club is a monthly show. In every one, I interview a lesfic author about their novels, fill you in on lesfic news and tell you what’s riding high in the Kindle lesbian fiction charts. If you’re into lesfic, listen in!
All the Lesbian Book Club episodes are listed below. For the Lesbians Who Write episodes, head here. Fill up your ears with lesbian goodness today.
Welcome to episode 43 of the Lesbian Book Club where I interview UK author AE Radley. We chat about Amanda’s meteoric rise in the world of lesfic and her crazy-hectic publishing schedule – her recent books include Bring Holly Home and The Road Ahead. Amanda discusses why she doesn’t write sex scenes and how all her books will always contain a large serving of humour.
On top of this month’s star interview, I also do a run-down of the Amazon Lesbian Fiction charts in the US & UK, and cover the winners of the recent Golden Crown Literary Awards. Plus, I fill you in on what I’ve been up to, including releasing The London Of Us, book four in the London Romance series.
Finally, don’t forget if you’re in Europe this August, come along to the brand-new European Lesfic Literary Conference – head to: http://ellconmeet.org/
The Lesbian Book Club is hosted and produced by The Lesbian Lounge.
Welcome to episode 42 of the Lesbian Book Club where I welcome back my friend and fellow author Harper Bliss and we have a right old chinwag about our recent collaboration in writing Once Upon A Princess, a lesbian royal romance. This was the first time either of us had co-written a book and we talk about the ups and downs and if we’d do it again.
I also do a run-down of the Amazon Lesbian Fiction charts in the US & UK. Plus, I talk about what I’ve been up to, including releasing Once Upon A Princess, as well as readying The London Of Us for launch on June 27th – book four in my London Romance series.

As usual, I also do a run-down of the Amazon lesbian fiction charts in the US & UK, as well as highlighting the shortlists for the Diva Awards and the Goldies – Diva is taking place in June in London, and the Goldies in July in Las Vegas.

Jenny talks about her passion for writing butch/femme romances, having lead protagonists who are polar opposites, and also her busy year ahead with three more books in the works! Plus, she’s got a lovely lilting Scottish accent, so it’s a win-win.

Her debut novel Four Steps won a Goldie award for Best Debut Novel in 2016 and she talks about setting her books in Scotland, how to create a character that readers love and how she sets up suspense in her books & keeps it going. Wendy also reveals how she fits in writing around her day job, the mantras that spur her on and her favourite crime writers in lesfic. She’s a fabulous interview with a lilting Scottish accent, to take a listen!
