23. Announcing the new IGF Archer-Amish Award for Literature: We'd Like A Word hosts Paul Waters & Stevyn Colgan hear from bestselling authors and prize judges Jeffrey Archer & Amish Tripathi about the new IGF (India Global Forum) Archer-Amish Award for Literature. The prize is $25,000 & it's not just for Indians - but listen carefully to hear the rules & entry criteria! This prize is for books excelling in storytelling rather than writing. Want to know what that means? Listen to Jeffrey & Amish explain.

This episode also welcomes new listeners on the Jiosaavn podcast platform & congratulates India on winning the T20 Cricket World Cup. What a final innings! And we'll also tell you about some of the fabulous guests from around the world who we've had on past episodes. We hope you'll be tempted to try some earlier episodes after you hear this one - some of them are 3-parters. Both Amish & Jeffrey have their own episodes - highly recommended listening.

And we update you a little on what co-hosts & authors Paul & Stevyn are up to. Some of Steve's stuff is really strange.

Thank you to the India Global Forum 2024 for welcoming We'd Like A Word to their very enlightening, eclectic & cutting edge gathering in London & Windsor. You too, dear listener, might also enjoy their future events.

Also - you'll notice that Stevyn is back. Thank you to Jonathan Kennedy for co-hosting in Steve's absence. (Jonathan was Director of Arts in India for 5 years for the British Council & has been everywhere in India & knows everyone there involved in culture.) Jonathan will be back-ack-ack. We hope. Apologies for the dip in sophistication until then.

We'd Like A Word is a podcast & radio show from authors Paul Waters & Stevyn Colgan. We talk with writers, readers, editors, agents, celebrities, talkers, poets, publishers, booksellers, & audiobook creators about books - fiction & non-fiction. We go out on various radio & podcast platforms. Our website is http://www.wedlikeaword.com for information on Paul, Steve & our guests. We're on Twitter @wedlikeaword & Facebook @wedlikeaword & our email is wedlikeaword@gmail.com Yes, we're embarrassed by the missing apostrophes. We like to hear from you - questions, thoughts, ideas, guest or book suggestions. Perhaps you'd like to come on We'd Like A Word to chat, review or read out passages from books. Paul is writing a new cosy mystery series set in contemporary Delhi - more on that anon. And if you're still stuck for something to read now, may we recommend Blackwatertown, the thriller by Paul Waters or Cockerings, the comic classic by Stevyn Colgan.
