Auriol Bishop Chats About Christmas is Coming
In my latest interview, I’m in conversation with Auriol Bishop, the author of Christmas is Coming,* which I found a joyful, inspiring and festive read.
Press the play button below to listen to our conversation:
Filled with Christmassy quotes, activities and recipe suggestions, as well as festivals celebrated throughout the autumn in the run-up to December, Christmas is Coming is an anthology that will delight even the Scrooges at Christmas.
Auriol tells me about the inspiration behind her book, how she wrote it as a kind of carol to her mother’s memory, as well as the traditions and books she and her family enjoy at this time of year.
With Christmas just around the corner, I hope you enjoy getting cosy, perhaps with a cup of tea and a mince pie, and listening to my chat with Auriol.
