Set sail with Rose Black and her Fantasy Pirate Adventure: Fated Winds and Promising Seas
Manage episode 458945360 series 3311603
Today, the Mythmakers podcast is setting sail with author Rose Black on a new fantasy pirate adventure for an adult audience: Fated Winds and Promising Seas (available on Hodderscape). Julia Golding discusses with Rose where the idea came from – and it’s not the usual place in this case!
In a book about freedom and predestination, they go on to discuss representation in fantasy books and writing from a perspective that might seem not to be your own – how an author has to navigate the shoals of freedom to write the story she feels drawn to create, and reception of that within the world. Finally, they settle on where the best place would be to be rescued by pirates!
