The momentous occasion of me learning that Legend want to publish my book ‘Silence’. I travelled to London for a meeting with Tom, my publisher, then later in the evening I was on a panel of authors at an event in Kensal library. There was free wine which unfortunately meant I missed my bus home. I’m glad I’ve got this recorded, and hope you enjoy listening.

Casting Pods is podcasting on the edge. Well, close to the corner, or maybe a bit round the bend. Anyway, it's me, Josie, talking about my life and stuff, playing my music and laughing with my son, my dog and taking the pee out of everything. I'm a blog-o-maniac, an internet freak and also some other rather ordinary things. If you're a mother, a cat-owner, a dog-owner, a lesbian, a writer, a reader, an artist, a TV watcher, a geek, a joker or anyone with a pulse, then there'll be something in my show for you. So come along and have a listen.

I would rate the show as a PG in that it has mature content but is not explicit. But then it depends on your perception of the world. If you consider the words LESBIAN or FEMINIST or ANTI-WAR to be explicit and not fit for the ears of vulnerable youngsters with malleable minds, then you go ahead and feed them your own propaganda instead. They'll make up their own minds when they're older anyway.

This show started out as an audio blog and travelogue but has progressed into ‘how I got my publishing contract’. My novel Silence was published in July 2008 and the most recent shows outline how this came about.
