Who’d have thought that your best first draft might not be written at a desk, but spoken aloud while walking your dog?
In this inspiring episode of The Write Club Podcast, our hosts chat with Marcia Hutchinson, author of the 2026 Women’s Prize for Fiction shortlisted debut, The Mercy Step.
Marcia breaks down her original drafting routine – dictating up to 2,000 words per loop in her local park – and opens up about how receiving an ADHD diagnosis transformed her understanding of focus, routine, and creative energy. From her past careers as a solicitor, publisher, political activist, and Zumba instructor to writing five novels over a decade, Marcia shares invaluable insights on building stories using autofiction, leveraging feedback from writing groups, and pushing through the long haul of publication.
