Episode description
Our guest this month is Kathryn Evans, who has been an actor, a waitress, a celery cutter and newspaper deliverer - she's even scrubbed the decks of the Mary Rose. Now she combines being an author with being a mum, running a farm, volunteering as co-Regional Advisor for SCBWI, and fencing competitively
Her debut More of Me won the Edinburgh International Book Festival First Book Award - the first YA novel ever to do so. It also won the 2017 SCBWI Crystal Kite Award for GB and Ireland. Beauty Sleep is her latest novel, which was shortlisted for the STEAM prize and won the 2020 CrimeFest Award for a YA novel.
