Barnaby Walter is (as B.P. Walter) the author of A Version of the Truth (published in the US as The Couple's Secret), Hold Your Breath, The Dinner Guest and more. He was born and raised in Essex and after spending his childhood and teenage years reading compulsively, he worked in bookshops then went to the University of Southampton to study Film and English followed by an MA in Film & Cultural Management. His latest book, Scuttle, is published under the name Barnaby Walter.

We had great fun chatting with Barnaby and hearing how he is a meticulous planner, and also why his process isn't one that many would follow (if you don't like listening to music when writing, you really won't like his approach...!) Plus, we talk about when it is okay to write to market, and why books that don't immediately sell can be valuable for the future.
