Nikki Henderson // Writing, Racing and Life

Nikki Henderson // Writing, Racing and Life

Friend of 59º North Nikki Henderson returns to the podcast to talk with me about a wide-ranging list of subjects on sailing, life and philosophy. This conversation was initially inspired by my own curiosity about Nikki's writing process. We talked about how each of us think about writing about sailing, how we go from idea to words-on-the-paper, how our experiences shape our writing and more. Then we delve into racing, recovery time after a long passage and lots more. If you want to read more of Nikki's writing, subscribe to 'SALTED', her weekly newsletter on Substack!
