Show Notes

You've finished writing and publishing your book ... now you have to tell people about it.

Do you seek to entertain, enlighten and inspire your audience when sharing your work? Do you wish to give more of a performance rather than simply present?

In this sixth episode of the HYBRID Author podcast, Joanne Morrell, children’s and young adult fiction writer and author of short nonfiction for authors, interviews Glenn B Swift. Glenn is a Western Australian Storyteller and children's author who has been performing professionally in schools, libraries, theatres and other public spaces in and around the city since 1988.

Listen in as Glenn shares secrets on preparation, props and how to give a killer performance as well as divulging what the Alexander Technique is and how it has helped Glenn sometimes perform 7 events in one day! We also touch upon Glenn's self-published journey for his illustrated Gothic book: The Ghost in the Bell Tower.
