Episode 64: London Book Fair Special#1 - with J D Kirk

The Hobcast Book Show is at the London Book Fair! In this first in a series of special podcasts, we speak to one of the most successful indie crime authors in the UK today, Barry Hutchison, who under the pen name J D Kirk has built a huge following for his DCI Jack Logan series. Originally a traditionally published author, Barry was quick to recognise the potential of the Amazon KDP platform and decided to become an independently published author of crime novels - a genre he'd never even read before he created Jack Logan! In this fascinating interview, Barry reveals the challenges he's overcome to become one of the UK's most successful crime writers.
