In this special episode Sam answers questions about her debut novel 'Slueths' which will be published this Thursday by Avon Books. Harriet, who was our first ever listener and is also one of Sam's long time friends, sat down to ask Sam all about the book, her inspirations for writing and how she found herself writing a crime rom-com when her first love is horror.

The twisted branches and moss covered rocks of Wistman's Wood on Dartmoor are so evocatively eldrich that it is no surprise strange stories have grown in between the trees. Join us this week as we venture into the dark of the forest to find what lurks within.

This week, we are lucky to be joined by magic makers Jackie Morris and Tamsin Abbott to talk about the creative process behind their book of stories, poems and illustrations inspired by the British countryside and the folklore all around us. Join us as we discuss how folklore inspires fiction, the magic to be found on the wind and the beauty of ink on glass. Jackie and Tamsin are endlessly fascinating, completely inspiring and such great fun.
