I heard him read at Swancon and that was my first experience of Tiny Deaths and I was a fan for ever after. But that would make my hit rate 1 writer out of ALL THE BORING READINGS I’ve had to sit through up to this moment in my life.

Unfortunately, I think they constitute about 5% of authors who *do* public readings.

I recently heard Rob Shearman reading a piece at the launch of his new book (on the Big Finish podcast RSS) and it was everything an author reading should be.
