The Writers' Show Geoff Hughes

Today, we've got an absolute banger of a show. Hugh Howey talks about his initially self-published SF classic WOOL which has been turned into the top-rating Apple TV+ series SILO. Hugh has been a champion of self-publishing from the very start of his career. It was fantastic to have the opportunity to talk to him about SILO, Wool, self-publishing and writing. He's a humble guy who has kept his ego on an even keel despite his phenomenal success.

We're travelling to the steamy tropical city of Darwin to talk to emerging author Pete Mitchell about his stunning debut novel Darwin's Wake.


Arriving in Darwin to accept a job offer from his old school friend Roland Redman, Paul Winter discovers that his friend has disappeared. At the same time, a sea container left on the docks in Australia’s searing Top End heat reveals a shocking crime of international significance. Sergeant Bill Yates from the Northern Territory Police Force races the clock to ensure justice is delivered. His focus turns to Kamahli, a beautiful refugee from Sri Lanka’s long and brutal civil war. Does she hold the key to Roland’s disappearance and the solution to the crimes? In Darwin’s Wake, lives and cultures collide and only the toughest will survive.


Darwin’s Wake is the fictional debut of Australian author Pete Mitchel and I spoke to him recently about Darwin, Wakes and writing that crucial first book...

Western Horror is one of my favourite sub-genres, and I'm pleased to bring a chat with the one and only B.L Blakenship. He is a prolific writer of western and splatterpunk horror from East Tennesee. He writes horror that is grounded in real American history, which gives his writing an uneasy, visceral punch. I spoke to B.L Blakenship about his new book God Walks The Dark Hills IV.

On this episode of The Writers' Show, Karen Hamilton-Viall talks about her fantastic new book The Curious Life of Ada Baker. It's a very funny paranormal detective story with lovely whimsical humour, not unlike Douglas Adams.

Today I'm talking to Sarah Townsend who has a new book out called The Little Book of Confusables. Have you ever been caught out using the wrong phrase or the wrong word? Have you mixed words up in a weird word salad and made people snigger at your poor grasp of the King's English? Sarah has written just the book for you.
