Jane Shemilt is an internationally-acclaimed, best-selling author of psychological suspense novels. Because of very annoying and frustrating technical difficulties, Jane was unable to join the show. Luckily, the brilliant Mario Dell'Olio (https://t.co/d0hSUsiOke) joined and celebrated with me. We talked about his latest book, Letters From Italy, #writing, life, music, and more. There are lots to learn about in this episode, from basic #writingtips on how music can influence your creativeness. We celebrated 200 episodes of #TheWritingCommunityChatShow. This show has seen 200 plus guests join the live show. We have heard some amazing life stories, writing journeys, and tips and we have all laughed many times on this show. Many beers have been drunk!

I encourage everyone to read it. Brimming with romance, comedy, drama, history, and family lines. It's everything." -Jeannie Gaffigan, Writer, Producer, New York Times Bestselling Author Letters from Italy is a story of true love that spans an ocean. Against all odds, an orphaned girl and a young dreamer find solace in a romance sparked by a single photo and years of transatlantic letters. From a tiny Italian town in pre-WWII to New York City in her golden age, hopeful immigrants take a chance at living the American dream. Set on the Puglian coast, a world comes alive with images of a fishing village, families from different socio-economic classes, and a love born out of chance. When they finally meet, Nicoletta and Orazio know they are destined to be together. Framed by the letters they wrote to each other, Letters from Italy takes us on a passage back through time with a romantic young couple whose devotion to one another prompted a bold journey in a foreign land.

"What is even more incredible is that Sarah Turner has now had 3 number 1 Sunday Times bestsellers!" S09 E02 #SarahTurner, AKA #TheUnmumsyMum, used her experiences and struggles as a mother to write a blog. That blog was a success. So many related to Sarah's reality, and many more were inspired by it. Soon after, Sarah started writing a book about motherhood. In 2018, she released The Unmumsy Mum, quoted as "the messy, maddening, hilarious reality; how there is no 'one size fits all' approach; and how it is sometimes absolutely fine to not know what you are doing." This book became an instant No.1 #SundayTimesbestseller! An achievement many authors can only dream of. What is even more incredible is that Sarah Turner has now had 3 number 1 Sunday Times bestsellers! Stepping Up is Sarah's latest release. It dropped in March of this year and as you can see below has received incredible praise, hitting the number 1 spot once again! **THE INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER** 'Written with such love and heart. Sarah has done an exceptional job of marrying her trademark comedy with deep and raw emotion. I loved it!' GIOVANNA FLETCHER 'A glorious novel about family, grief, changing expectations, and, ultimately, love.' The Sun Beth has never stuck at anything. She's quit more jobs and relationships than she can remember and she still sleeps in her childhood bedroom. It's not that she hasn't tried to grow up, it's just that so far, the only commitment she's held down is Friday drinks at the village pub. Then, in the space of a morning, her world changes. An unspeakable tragedy turns Beth's life upside down, and she finds herself guardian to her teenage niece and toddler nephew, catapulted into an unfamiliar world of bedtime stories, parents' evenings and cuddly elephants. Having never been responsible for anyone - or anything - it's not long before she feels seriously out of her depth. What if she's simply not up to the job? With a little help from her best friend Jory (purely platonic, of course ...) and her lovely, lonely next-door neighbour, Albert, Beth is determined that this time she's not giving up. It's time to step up. This is a story about digging deep for strength you never knew you had and finding magic in things that were there all along. 'STEPPING UP is a heart-blasting triumph of a novel - wise, witty and wonderfully human.' Isabelle Broom, author of A YEAR AND A DAY 'Stop EVERYTHING and read this! Funny, tender and beautifully observed. Loved, loved, LOVED it!' Cathy Bramley, author of THE LEMON TREE CAFE 'A moving and beautifully-told tale of parenthood but not as you know it. I just loved it.' Gillian McAllister, author of THAT NIGHT Readers love STEPPING UP! ***** 'Simply excellent . . . A true emotional rollercoaster.' ***** 'It had me laughing out loud, on a bus no less, crying and laughing. This book is a tonic! I read it in one go. I was rooting for Beth the whole way through!!' ***** 'An emotional rollercoaster to keep you turning the pages. . .Perfect for curling up with; perfect for a bedtime read; perfect for a book group; just perfect.' ***** 'This book needs all the stars! It made me laugh, it made me cry and I just want to start it all over again.' ***** 'Funny, heartbreaking and totally relatable, it makes you feel all the feels!'

S9E01 Holly started her career at the Sunday Times, before moving to the Daily Telegraph. During six years at the Telegraph, she was the Whitehall Editor and jointly ran the investigations team. She then moved to work on the Guardian's investigations team. Holly has been nominated for a wide range of #journalism prizes, winning awards for her work on stories including MPs’ Expenses at the Telegraph and the Panama Papers at the Guardian. She has reported from a wide range of countries, including Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Libya, Jordan and Lebanon. As well as flying around the world on everything from Lynx helicopters to Air Force One, Holly also worked as an undercover journalist. In 2008, she was the Laurence Stern Fellow, spending several months working at the Washington Post. Holly's first novel - To The Lions - won the 2019 CWA Ian Fleming Steel Dagger. The Dead Line was longlisted for the 2021 Steel Dagger. Her third book, The Hunt and The Kill, is out now. It was TheTimes's #thriller of the Month. The Crime #writers Associations described To The Lions as "A deeply uncomfortable read which lingers long in the memory, this tautly plotted and timely thriller shines a light on the role of the journalist as witness or protagonist and asks devastating questions about the value of human life before culminating in a life-or-death chase through the desert to Libya. This is a highly accomplished debut that marks Watt out as a fresh and important voice." Her latest book THE HUNT AND THE KILL was called a searing, page-turning, pulse-racing thriller that sees Casey on a hunt around the globe as she pursues a major exposé into pioneering medical research and drugs that could change the world. The Hunt and the Kill is the third book in the Casey Benedict series. That too was a Times Thriller of the Month! THE HUNT AND THE KILL: When acclaimed undercover journalist Casey Benedict is asked to interview a young woman with cystic fibrosis, the patient's doctor alerts her to the looming threat of antibiotic-resistant infections, tipping her off about a potential new wonder drug. If the rumours are true, this new antibiotic could save millions of lives, but no one wants to admit that the drug even exists. As Casey investigates, she follows the trail from the Maldives to a game reserve in Zimbabwe, using her undercover skills to probe the truth and find out why the discovery of this new drug is being covered-up. When tragedy unexpectedly strikes, Casey suspects that someone is trying to silence her, but she is not prepared to let the story drop, no matter how much danger she - or those she loves most - are put in. A searing, page-turning, pulse-racing thriller that sees Casey on a hunt around the globe as she pursues a major exposé into pioneering medical research and drugs that could change the world.
