Dave Manderson – Jim and Pat’s West End Chat Podcast
Welcome to episode 98 of Jim and Pat’s Glasgow West End Chat. Today Pat will be chatting to writer and former creative writing tutor Dave Manderson.
Dave works with literary organisations such as Scottish PEN, he organises and runs literary events and has presented illustrated talks on a range of different topics – including topics as diverse as serial killers and Scottish identity.
He writes both fiction and non-fiction. He recently curated a series of films written by Alan Sharp called, ‘From Greenock to Hollywood’, and he has written a book about the same Scottish filmmaker called,’The Anti-hero’s Journey’.
At the moment Dave is working on a book of short stories and a new novel.
