interview
Bestselling Crime Writer, Sheila Quigley, Discusses Her New Novel ‘Lady in Red’
Lady in Red is back to the Seahills and mainly back to the Lumsdon family who had centre stage in book one Run for Home, which has recently been made into a very successful stage play. It's every writer’s dream to see their work on stage, TV, or film, and the feeling was unexplainable, try laughing and crying at the same time, and it still won’t come close.
Feminist Activist & Author, Trista Hendren, Discusses Her New Book ‘Mother Earth’
As I began to heal my own life, I began to care much more about the Earth. There is a very real connection between the violence committed against women around the world and violence against the Earth. 'Mother Earth' explores some of those connections in words children and adults can absorb... I hope the book will be a discussion piece for the generations, which will spurn action.
In the Booth with Ruth – Rachel Kennedy, Author
I think I’m definitely most comfortable writing in the YA/fantasy genre, although at some point I would like to have a go at something a little different... I’d say it’s a case of sticking to what you know, subjects you can relate to. I read a lot of YA fiction and I love anything that falls into the fantasy genre... I guess I’ve written a book that I would buy myself.
Author, Fran Clark, discusses her debut novel ‘Holding Paradise’
In the Booth with Ruth – Pye Jakobsson, Sex Workers’ Rights Activist from Sweden
I am concerned with labour exploitation in general. I have my doubts regarding if the trafficking terminology is really helpful... Without a clear distinction between sex work and forced labour we can never really address the exploitation that happens in the sex industry as well as in other industries...
George Perez & Mohammad Maaty Discuss Their New TV Series ‘The Life’ Raising Awareness of Child Sex Trafficking
Interview With True Crime Writer, William Lobban, On His Bestselling Autobiography ‘The Glasgow Curse’ Plus eBook Giveaway
I’m now perceived as an author, a title I like very much and certainly it’s much better than being labelled a gangster that’s for sure... I can channel this fresh, positive energy into things which are a million miles removed from those that defined my life before. Writing has also given me a newfound purpose, a sense of direction, and an enthusiastic aptitude to move forward in a different light whilst simultaneously putting the past firmly behind me.
In the Booth with Ruth – William Cortvriendt M.D. Sharing Vital Information for a Healthier Life
We all like to live healthier, but it is often not known what is healthy and what is not... For example, simply changing the type and amount of carbohydrates in your diet has an important relation with your risk for diabetes... It has also been shown that coffee and tea are about the best beverages that you can drink...
Currency of Corruption Bring Their “Dishonest Rock ‘n’ Roll” to the Booth
Sam Vaknin, Author of Malignant Self Love: Narcissism Revisited, Shares His Knowledge and Personal Experience of Narcissistic Personality Disorder
In the Booth with Ruth – Emma Roberts, Author
I like writing about relationships and people. I like to write about subjects that people can relate to. I want my stories to make people think. I want them to be emotive... I think I am quite an emotional person and very interested in the psychology of people...why people are the way they are, what made them like that and how people react to others.

In the Booth with Ruth – Aidan Thorn, Author
I like to...tell the reader about the insecurities of a criminal character, the reasons behind their actions. I like to develop an anti-hero, as they’re always the most interesting characters, someone that the reader knows is a wrong'un but still cares for. I also like to delve into relationships, criminal to criminal, the loyalties, rivalries and double-crossing, and criminal to law keeper, the mutual respect, the game of cat and mouse and how one gets the upper hand.
