For the latest Scots Whay Hae! podcat Ali spoke to writer Maud Wolf about her debut novel Thirteen Ways To Kill Lulabelle Rock, out now with Angry Robot Books.
Maud gives a beautifully concise synopsis, before talking about that arresting title, why she wanted to write this story, the road to being published and her experiences along the way, how the novel works on a number of levels, and the philosophies which drive it.
The two also talk tarot and its role in the novel, the influences on the writing - both literary and otherwise, creating multiple versions of Lulabelle Rock, and the challenges of publicising as well as publishing a debut.
It's a conversation which will be of interest to writers as well as readers, and is a great introduction to the novel, and the writing of Maud Woolf.
