The Writing Community Chat Show

In this captivating interview, we sit down with Kate Foster, a national newspaper journalist with over two decades of experience in the field. Kate's love for her hometown of Edinburgh and its rich history has led her to become a successful author, with her debut novel "The Maiden" winning the prestigious Bloody Scotland Pitch Perfect 2020 prize for new writers. Join us as Kate shares her insights into the world of journalism, her creative process as an author, and how Edinburgh's past has influenced her writing. Don't miss out on this inspiring conversation with Kate Foster!

Her latest book is THE MAIDEN:
Synopsis
'A masterpiece. A thrilling historical murder tale but so much more. Vivid, evocative and full of humanity' – Janice Hallett, bestselling author of The Appeal and The Twyford Code
Inspired by a real-life case and winner of the Bloody Scotland Pitch Perfect Award, Kate Foster's The Maiden is a remarkable story with a feminist revisionist twist, giving a voice to women otherwise silenced by history.

"In the end, it did not matter what I said at my trial. No one believed me."

Edinburgh, October 1679. Lady Christian is arrested and charged with the murder of her lover, James Forrester. News of her imprisonment and subsequent trial is splashed across the broadsides, with headlines that leave little room for doubt: Adulteress. Whore. Murderess.
Only a year before, Lady Christian was newly married, leading a life of privilege and respectability. So, what led her to risk everything for an affair? And does that make her guilty of murder? She wasn't the only woman in Forrester's life, and certainly not the only one who might have had cause to wish him dead . . .

'Threat hangs over every page like the awaiting guillotine, but the women in this book gleam sharper. Witty, gritty and full of heart, their voices rise through the brutality and hardship of 17th century Edinburgh, battling to be heard' – Cari Thomas, bestselling author of Threadneedle.

Together as one, we get it done! The Writing Community Chat Show is a proud supporter of indie authors and creative persistence.

In this exciting episode of our writing community chat show, we sit down with bestselling author Matt Johnson to discuss his journey to becoming a successful writer. From overcoming writer's block to mastering the art of storytelling, Matt shares his insights and experiences that have led to his success. We will be discussing just how, after just two years as a published author, Matt Johnson was voted at #22 in the WH Smith list of all-time best crime writers! Matt's first novel is 2016 John Creasey CWA Dagger listed 'Wicked Game', which was also listed by Amazon UK as the highest-rated rising-star novel of 2016. Following on from the success of this novel, two further books in the series - Deadly Game and End Game - were released in 2017 and 2018, respectively.

Wicked Game and Deadly Game both entered the top 10 Amazon (all books) in both the UK and Australia. Wicked Game as an audiobook peaked at #1.

Matt is a founder member of CRIME CYMRU the Wales Crime Writers collection and is co-chair of Gŵyl Crime Cymru Festival, the very first Crime Literature Festival for Wales, scheduled for April 2022.

Join us as we delve into the world of writing and learn from one of the best in the business. Whether you're a seasoned writer or just starting out, you won't want to miss this interview!

Matts latest novel is set for release in June of 2023, see the blurb below.

No Ordinary Day : Espionage, betrayal, terrorism and corruption - the truth behind the murder of WPC Yvonne Fletcher:
‘An important book, especially now’ Lee Child
‘Espionage, betrayal, terrorism, corruption and murder. All the ingredients of a Le Carré novel, only it’s real’ Matthew Hall
‘A powerful and timely account’ John Sutherland
As WPC Yvonne Fletcher lay mortally wounded, having been shot from within the Libyan People’s Bureau in London on 17 April 1984, her friend and fellow police officer John Murray promised he would see those responsible brought to justice. That promise would take him 37 years to fulfil, during which time he uncovered a startling web of intrigue involving big business, politicians and our intelligence agencies.
This is John Murray’s story.

In this exclusive interview with Hanna Jameson, author and screenwriter, we get a glimpse into the secrets of her success. Jameson shares her writing tips, process and journey, as well as her insights into the writing community. If you're an aspiring author or just love great stories, you won't want to miss this interview!

Hanna wrote her first book at the age of seventeen, which was later nominated for the John Creasey Dagger Award. She's a bestselling author (Something You Are, Girl Seven, Those Crazy Freeways, The Last) and is currently working on screen projects.

Her latest novel, Are You Happy Now, was called one of the best novels of 2023 by Sara Collins. It was released in February of 2023, see the blurb below.

At a New York City wedding, on a sweltering summer night, four people are trying to be happy.
Yun has everything he ever wanted, but somehow it's never enough.

Emory is finally making her mark, but feels the shame more than the success.
Andrew is trying to be honest, but has lied to himself his whole life.

Fin can't resist falling in love, but can't help wrecking it all either.

And then the world begins to end. The four of them watch as one of the wedding guests sits down and refuses to get back up. Soon it's happening across the world. Is it a choice or an illness?
Because how can anyone be happy in a world where the only choice is to feel everything - or nothing at all?

One of Britain’s bestselling novelists, Anthony Horowitz is the author adult and children’s fiction, films, plays and journalism. His best-known work for children and teens includes the Alex Rider spy series and the Diamond Brothers series. His adult fiction includes the new Sherlock Holmes novels House of Silk and Moriarty, the new James Bond series novel Trigger Mortis and Forever and a Day, and standalone novels The Word is Murder and The Magpie Murders.

Internationally bestselling author Anthony Horowitz's third James Bond novel, After Forever and a Day: It is M's funeral. One man is missing from the graveside: the traitor who pulled the trigger and who is now in custody, accused of M's murder--James Bond.

Behind the Iron Curtain, a group of former Smersh agents want to use the British spy in an operation that will change the balance of world power. Bond is smuggled into the lion's den--but whose orders is he following, and will he obey them when the moment of truth arrives?

In a mission where treachery is all around and one false move means death, Bond must grapple with the darkest questions about himself. But not even he knows what has happened to the man he used to be.

WITH A MIND TO KILL:
M's funeral.
One man missing from the graveside.
The traitor accused of his murder.
Bond.
