What really happens when a writing retreat turns deadly? 🕯️✍️

In this episode, our host Fiona Taylor chats with January Gilchrist, author of the twist-filled thriller The Final Chapter — a story that takes the idea of “writer’s block” to a whole new level.

We talk about the dark side of creativity, the lure of isolation, and how far people will go for a story worth telling.

It’s atmospheric, unsettling, and utterly compelling — the perfect listen for your evening walk, your commute, or while you’re curled up with a candle burning low.
