The Astrid Edwards Megamix

September 19, 2020 Carly Findlay Leave a Comment

I’ve been collecting interviews with Astrid Edwards – bibliophile and podcasting extraordinaire.

Image: A selfie of two women, smiling. One woman has fair skin and dark Lon hair and is wearing backs. The other woman has a ref face and short dark curly hair, and is wearing a gold and pink floral jacket over a floral dress.

She’s an incredible interviewer so I was thrilled when she asked me to be interviewed. Last October I had the privilege of seeing her interview the great Richard Fidler at Ubud Writers and Readers Festival. Amazing! Astrid is a huge supporter of writers, especially women writers, and I’m proud to call her a friend and colleague (she’s one of only four friends whom I’ve seen since March!). Astrid is also a contributor in Growing Up Disabled in Australia, my second book, which is out in February 2021. Listen to The Garret podcast and Anonymous Was a Woman.

Astrid interviewed me on The Garret podcast which aired early this year. I’ve been listening to The Garret for years, I love to hear writers’ processes. This was the first time she and I properly sat down to chat, actually, despite meeting before. Listen to the podcast below, and read the transcript here.

In May we had a virtual afternoon chat for The State Library of Victoria.

Most recently, Astrid coordinated an interview for Anonymous was a Woman, the podcast she does with Jamila Rizvi about books. I talked to Jamila about being a woman of colour and also two books I’ve read by women of colour this year. Listen below.

Thanks so much for chatting with me Astrid. You are a star!

Have these interviews helped you think or will you use it in your work? Please consider buying me a drink.
My book Say Hello is our now – in paperback, audio, and ebook. Details here.
