We chat about writing books that will lead readers to your older work, and hear about his two new books - The Scour, out now, and The Infinite State (out next year). Plus, we chat about space roofers (blame Tariq) and of course hear about 5 books that influenced him!Links:Buy The Scour and Richard's other books nowFollow Richard on InstagramVisit Richard's websiteSupport us on Patreon and get great benefits!: https://www.patreon.com/ukpageonePage One Extra and Page One - The Writer's Podcast are brought to you by Write Gear, creators of Page One - the Writer's Notebook.
