The Book Griffin Podcast
This channel hosts a collection of short stories, written by Ann Butler. They are often supernatural, sometimes quirky and they all contain adult themes. They are kept short so they're easily consumed by commuters or people who don't have the time to listen to long audio dramas. Ann has also published two women's fiction novels: After the Hurt and Caught Out. Both are available in digital and paperback formats from mainstream online book sellers and on her website. Ann would love to hear what you think about her stories so please leave a comment.
