Irma is the founder of the Secrets from the Green Room podcast, and co-host with Karen Viggers. In each episode they chat with an author or industry professional about their experience of the writing and publishing process in honest green room-style, uncovering some of the plain and simple truths, as well as some of the secrets — whether they be mundane or salubrious — and having a lot of fun in the process.

Secrets from the Green Room is supported by Marion Writers, Writers Victoria and The Book Cow bookshop in Kingston, ACT.

Episodes feature conversations with Charlotte Wood, Christos Tsiolkas, Cate Kennedy, Nam Le, Craig Silvey, Anita Heiss, Robbie Arnott, Sofie Laguna, Tony Birch, Diana Reid, James Bradley and many more!
