- EPISODE 8 - Dr Steve Hollyman's Wild Mind - a podcast by Jad Steel

Today is a first on The Wild Mind Podcast as we are joined by Bath Spa Senior Creative Writing Lecturer, Dr Steve Hollyman. He is the second year leader for Undergraduate study (which somehow I forgot when we were recording even though he was my year leader when I was in second year), and his first book 'Keeping Britain Tidy' was published in 2010. He also has two novels, 'Lairies' and 'Esc&Ctrl', which will be published in 2021 and 2022. 

He also has qualifications in Creative Writing (MA), English Literature and Philosophy (Joint Hons), and a PhD thesis entitled 'The Self-Begetting Novel: Metafiction in the 21st Century'.

It was really a great experience to have Steve on the podcast, as the first lecturer he offered an interesting insight into how for him these changes have effected his life. We talked about how our literature work has changed in response to the lockdown, the effect literature can have on you at a young age, obsessive tendencies and how they can be beneficial, and of course I asked him if he is going to shave his head. I'm grateful to Steve for coming on the podcast, he was a great guest and shared a lot of invaluable advice. Go have a listen To Steve's wild mind!
