Jamie West: Behind The Scenes of The Stage and the Page

The Conversation with Nadine Matheson

Our episode features a riveting chat with author Jamie West, who brings a wealth of knowledge from his theatre background to the self-publishing scene. Jamie helps us draw fascinating parallels between the theatre and publishing, emphasising the value of all entertainment forms, from popular culture to high art.

Forget the notion of "guilty pleasures"—we champion the joy of consuming art in its myriad forms and talk about his new book, Murder At The Matinee. Experience the hard work that goes into crafting stories that resonate and entertain, and being an independent publisher.

Murder At The Matinee

Renowned murder mystery playwright Bertie Carroll returns, this time in London's West End, to solve the mystery of an impossible murder and the newspaper advert that preceded it.
