It's tempting to approach every new year with refreshed focus and aspirations, and we're no different here at The Hobcast Book Show. But let's be realistic. 2023 was a year of major upheaval in the creative industries with the growing impact of generative AI, combined with a cost of living crisis, and rising production costs. So can we look forward to a year of positive changes in 2024? Our guest this week is Derek Thompson, prolific author of the Thomas Bladen thriller series and the DS Wild Crime Mysteries for Joffe Books. He's also written comedy material for radio. As he tells us, it's challenging to predict where publishing is heading, and how authors will survive as changes sweep the industry.
Also this week, Adrian and Rebecca discuss their plans for the year ahead for the show, and for their plans for their publishing company, Hobeck Books.
