Live with Darren Freebury-Jones

A recording from Amy McElroy's live video

Thank you to all who joined us yesterday for our live chat with the fabulous Darren Freebury-Jones. Unfortunately we did have some technical difficulties, initially it appeared to only affect me, but which then caused Bec to lose connection and she was unable to get back onto the stream, but we managed to get through it.

As noted, Shakespeare’s Borrowed Feathers is now available in paperback and for those after an audio edition, you know what to do! After listening to Darren talk about his fictional work on Christopher Marlowe, I have just bought the first in The Adventures of Christopher Marlowe, the trilogy is currently available for £0.99 each on kindle.
