We love talking about books so much on 'Don't Shoot The Messenger' that we decided to do a whole podcast dedicated to interveiws with Australian writers and their stories. Introducing The Book Pod
Join Corrie Perkin in conversation with Australian author Markus Zusak.
Markus has just released 'Bridge of Clay' some 13 years after his hit 'The Book Thief'.
Markus shares his feelings of doubt and fear writing after the success of 'The Book Thief' admitting there were hard years and his desire to write beyond his capabilities as 'Bridge of Clay' developed.
In "6 Quick Questions" we talk about the difference between promoting a book now compared to 13 years ago, we find out what Markus splurged on when the cheques for 'The Book Thief' started rolling in and what's next in his writing journey.
'Bridge of Clay' is available to buy HERE. We have a few signed copies of the book for sale just enter the promo code 'TheBookPod' at checkout (while stocks last).

Books Markus recommends

'The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier and Clay' by Michael Chabon
Corrie's "Plug of the Week" is 'Becoming' by Michelle Obama (avaialble HERE).
