StoryshapedPod

Just ICYMI: @StoryshapedPod is on hiatus for the rest of 2023, much to @scahill and @SJOHart's regret - but we will be back. Look for new episodes in 2024, and in the meantime, check out our existing episodes. And keep seeking out stories! shows.acast.com/storyshaped

Take a stroll through our episodes for S1 and S2 and see if there's anything you missed, or anything you'd like to listen to again. We've got some crackers: @EfuaTraore, @Hopewrites, @whatSFSaid, @FrancesHardinge, @Louiestowell, @sabineadeyinka and more. Thanks for listening!

This very day last year, a little introductory trailer to a little podcast called @StoryshapedPod went live. Its co-hosts (@scahill and @SJOHart) were quite nervous, but they believed in the stories. And now? We're 1! Happy birthday, Storyshaped. shows.acast.com/storyshaped

Every Monday over the next 6 weeks this summer, you can hear the #R4Today weekly guide to children's literature. Author Frank Cottrell-Boyce & librarian Jennifer Horan will be recommending books on different themes - this week it's history. See their recommendations below 📖⬇️

@KieranJFanning Thanks, Kieran! #GettingStoryshaped is always great fun, and our guests are always wonderful to chat to (but Sadhbh's was a really extra-special conversation!)

Just listened to this. Really good.

It's a whole year since @StoryshapedPod opened its Twitter doors... Happy First Birthday to Us! #StoryshapedIsOne #MyTwitterAnniversary

Which books really shaped you, and made you who you are? When you ask people this question, they will almost always mention children's books. That's why I believe children's books are the most impotant books of all - and why I've dedicated my life to writing them!

We love these top tips on writing from this week's @StoryshapedPod guest, @whatSFSaid. Check them out! (And don't forget to pop in and have a listen to our chat with the brilliant SF, too.) Article: booktrust.org.uk/news-and-featu… Podcast: shows.acast.com/storyshaped/ep…

@aliceemross @whatSFSaid Thanks, Alice! 💜😍🎙️💜This week's episode might be of interest: shows.acast.com/storyshaped/ep…

I believe the books we love when we're young are the ones that shape us at the deepest levels, and make us who we are. So I was delighted to discover a podcast all about this, and to talk about the stories that shaped me! @StoryshapedPod @SJOHart @scahill shows.acast.com/storyshaped/ep…
