I’m writing a novel that’s very much influenced by 80s Alternative Music- would you like to follow my journey? 🖤
Really enjoyed listening to this @collettwriter.bsky.social - Hope you get your book published !
As some of you will know, I've been working on book about punk - part teenage diary, part serious reflections on the times, from the NF to Peter Sutcliffe.
Here's a podcast interview about it, which you may like to listen to / like / share / whatever... CC x
