Welcome to the Bent Biblios Podcast! On this episode, we had the opportunity to sit down with award winning poet, author and academic CJ Cooke. CJ has written various poems, publications and novels including I Know My Name, The Blame Game, The Nesting and The Lighthouse Witches.
We chat with CJ all about her most recent novel, The Lighthouse Witches, the history of witches in Scotland, funny things children say, folklore, why stories are so integral to who we are, how belief systems play a role in the decisions we make, the challenges of writing multiple timelines and so much more.
