  • The Great Disasters Podcast Is Written, Researched and Produced by Kari Fay
    The Sinking of the Titanic (Part One) It's a cold, moonless night with calm seas. Below decks, hundreds of passengers have settled in for the night, or are burning the midnight oil and making the most of the ship’s luxurious amenities. Above them all, the lookouts in the crow’s nest strain their eyes against the freezing air, gazing into a far-reaching darkness which makes it difficult even to make out the horizon. Suddenly, something looms out of the gloom. The lookout rings the bridge, his voice urgent. “Iceberg, right ahead!” I'm Kari Fay, and this is Great Disasters. It would be hard to produce a podcast called Great Disasters and not talk about the Titanic; that’s why I’m making it the subject of a two part special. It's one of the best known tragedies in history, boosted by countless films and documentaries on the subject. Even though it happened over a hundred years ago, and even the last survivors have now passed on, it's a name with instant recognition. It seems like a tale crafted to be memorable; the ship everybody knew to be unsinkable, sunk in just a few hours on her maiden voyage with the loss of many on board, from the poorest to the richest. However, not everything you've heard about the Titanic is necessarily true. Firstly, let's address that “unsinkable” thing. Was the Titanic really designed to be unsinkable? Well, yeah, in as much as no ship designer ever designed a ship to sink; but just like any designer they were working with certain limitations; the technology of the day, the time, money and materials available, and all those other practical considerations.

I started the manuscript in 2016, and — as I write this — I’m hoping to finally have it done in 2020 as the COVID-19 pandemic sweeps across the globe (make of that coincidence what you will). This is the longest I’ve ever taken to write a novel. The original version of IN HER NAME that I published in 2008, which I later broke apart to become EMPIRE, CONFEDERATION, and FINAL BATTLE, also took four years to write, back when my muse wouldn’t let me sleep unless I put in a good round of writing for the day.
