Writing for reaction, with Natalie Morris - a podcast by Sara Tasker

"Reaction is the point of writing. You’ve only failed as a writer if the reaction is silence."

Natalie Morris dreamed of being a writer as a child, and is now firmly entrenched in her dream job. She’s the senior lifestyle writer at metro.co.uk, and author of the new book Mixed/Other: Explorations of Multiraciality in Modern Britain. Writing about race comes with its own suite of challenges and often elicits extreme reactions, but Natalie sees these as important, saying, “My job is to provoke discussion and promote new ways of thinking.”

She’s also a fellow Mancunian, so let’s not overlook that!
