Description:

Have you ever wanted to become a permaculture writer? Listen in to learn the niches waiting for permaculture writers and insights from our guest's decades of permaculture writing, editing and publishing.

I am delighted to welcome you to a the first of our special Permaculture Writer's Club series on the Sense-making in a Changing World podcast. This podcast is an initiative of the Permaculture Education Institute. We teach permaculture teachers around the world and host global permaculture conversations and learning communities.

Who better to launch the Permaculture Writer's Club with me than Maddy Harland - writer, editor, publisher extraordinaire.  I love when I get the chance to catch up with her.  Maddy is the cofounder and editor of the brilliant 30+ year old Permaculture Magazine and co-founder too of Permanent Publications - THE major contributor of permaculture books in the world. 

Maddy is also an avid beekeeper, no-dig gardener, forest gardener, walker, nature lover and a mother of two amazing daughters. She is a visiting Knowledge Exchange Fellow of the Institute of Theological Partnerships at the University of Winchester in the UK and through her publishing company, a recipient of the Queens Award for entrepreneurship “unfettered dedication to promoting sustainable development internationally.”

Maddy and I talk about what kind of writing we need in permaculture now & how we need more diversity of permaculture writing, more writing about fair share and good writing that opens the conversation about what in the world that is possible - signposting what the future might look like and describe a diversity of practical climate adaptations for all the different regions of the world, and all different contexts.

Here's where to make a book submission to Permanent Publications.

This podcast is supported by Permaculture Education Institute - teaching permaculture teachers globally. We host courses, and free film club and masterclass events.
