The Plague Remedy Podcast
This is the podcast for writers and those who love them.
While there are countless podcasts, shows, and books about the craft of writing, The Plague Remedy Podcast delves deeper. Each week, we explore the art of writing and the whys of writing through thought-provoking interviews with writers, academics, and creatives of all kinds.
Born out of the COVID pandemic, and created by two PhDs in creative writing and literature, Plague Remedy reflects a time when people turned to the arts for comfort and connection during moments of uncertainty, as a remedy for the plague.
Tune in to discover new writers, enjoy a variety of accents, and explore fascinating ideas on The Plague Remedy Podcast.
