First Graft Podcast
Join writer Heidi James as she chats with a special guest to explore the creative process from scratch. From the first idea, the first marks on the blank page, wrong turns, successes, making a mess and completing the first draft. Listen to conversations about craft, the creative process, fear, procrastination and the hard graft behind the artwork we love.

Chapter sixteen - Katherine Angel
In this chapter I talk to the wonderful Katherine Angel, the author of Daddy Issues (Peninsula Press, 2019), and Unmastered: A Book On Desire, Most Difficult To Tell (Penguin, 2012). Her next book is called Tomorrow Sex Will Be Good Again, and will be published by Verso. Katherine teaches creative and critical writing at Birkbeck College, University of London, and has a PhD in the history and philosophy of sexuality and psychiatry from the University of Cambridge.
We talk about consent, complexity, Stranger Things, relationships, inspiration, Sophie MacKintosh's The Water Cure, Adam Phillips on Winnicott, writing ourselves into being, trusting the process and so much more.
