Coming Soon... 

People often tell New York Times best-selling romantasy writer Stacey McEwan that they don't like her female main characters. Much to their surprise, Stacey often agrees with them. Yet she still has very good reasons for writing them just as they are.

In this episode, the primary school teacher turned author of the Artisan Trilogy, including A Forbidden Alchemy and the newly published A Forsaken Prophecy joins Luke Bateman to discuss how she was confident she would be an author from a very young age - and how that confidence was shaken. Stacey describes how she gave entire classes of students experiences in storytelling they've never forgotten. She describes exactly how she felt when she learned she had a best-seller, how she still struggles with editing feedback - and, a fantasy map mishap she didn't see coming.

After the success of '10 things I wish you knew about your child's mental health', a perennial parental best-seller, Dr Billy Garvey wasn't keen on writing another book. That was, until he started thinking about our boys.

In this episode, the incredible developmental pediatrician, researcher, author and podcaster joins Luke to discuss what the boys of today really needs from us - and the role books can play in that picture.

Dr Billy discusses the role that books had in his own life, the tender moments they created with his Mum which he now shares with his own kids, the cultural factors that most threaten the wellbeing of our boys, the shocking statistics, and his ultimate advice to parents or anyone who has a young man in their life.
