Oral tradition is a wonderfully diverse form of communication in which societies share and maintain their knowledge, culture and history from generation to generation. It includes methods such as poetry, prose, storytelling and singing. However, over time much has changed if we consider how this practice has survived.

Today I have the joy of welcoming author Joshua Gillingham, & narrator Alexander C. Stewart, as they announce the release of The Gatewatch audiobook! Join us as we discuss Joshua’s epic adventure novel and its marvellous characters, oral tradition, poetry, audiobooks & much more!
