About this episode

Claudine Tinellis chats with debut author Katie Hoskins about her novel and themes of motherhood and friendship.

Katie Hoskins is a Sydney-based author whose debut novel ‘When the Party’s Over’ (Pan Macmillan) and has officially been on the shelves around the country since 31 March. An astutely crafted novel about motherhood and the power of female friendships with a clever twist at the end that totally blew me away. I enjoyed a wide-ranging chat with Katie recently about her writing journey, inspiration, friendship and motherhood. A delightful conversation with an exciting new voice in Australian fiction.
