The Sunday Salon with Alice-Azania Jarvis
Arts:Books
My guest this week is Kate Mosse, world-famous, bestselling author - and the Founder Director of the Women’s Prize For Fiction, which is awarded on Wednesday 5 June. I LOVED her. We talk about how she quit her high-powered job to pursue writing, why her husband took her surname when they had children, getting confused with Kate Moss (no “e”), writing her most recent book The Burning Chambers (which came out in paperback earlier this year) - and how she set up the Women’s Prize for Fiction in 1996 in response to an all-male Booker Prize shortlist. She also reveals the one piece of advice she’d give to any aspiring writer.
