“If someone wants to write a story that you have researched and really gotten involved with emotionally - if you see someone do it in a different way that opposes your own views - how would that make you feel?”

Have you ever had the feeling someone else might be writing the exact same story as you, at the exact same time? Have you ever felt desperate to finish your book in case someone pips you to the post?

Well, in The Witch in the Well rivalry, jealousy and hatred run amuck as this very scene unfolds. Our guest this episode is the book’s author, Camilla Bruce. In this episode we learn about the battle between Catherine and Elena, two women trying to tell the story of long-dead witch Ilsbeth Clark. 

In this episode, you will learn:

  • How to get scientific about the writing process.
  • How folklore can complement a modern narrative.
  • The impact of looking through the lens of death.
