Well that was a great day out. And the folks at Ujima are very quick getting their podcasts online. You can find my main appearance here. I start about 15 minutes in. And when Paulette discovered that I publish ebooks she asked me back for a brief segment in her second hour, starting around 35 minutes in to this recording. I think I did OK, though I really must remember to mention bi people more often.

What really got me excited about the day, however, is that Ujima has launched a project called Sounds Reads. It is backed by the Lottery and Bristol Libraries, it is a project to encourage reading amongst immigrant communities in the city. There will, of course, be a particular emphasis on young people. Some of you are going to get emails from me about this. There’s a short segment starting 17 minutes into the second show with three guys talking about the problem of getting boys to read. (And some slightly dubious stuff about gender that I’ll talk to Pauline about later.)
