Publicity has always been important for authors. Mark Twain promoted his books by writing letters to the paper, and even Agatha Christie, who was known for being very private, still did interviews with prominent newspapers. Yet some authors think this kind of publicity is old-fashioned. In a world dominated by social media, do we even need traditional PR anymore?If you've ever wondered how to get your book featured in the media—or whether it's even worth trying—you won't want to miss this episode of Novel Marketing.In this week's episode, you'll hear from veteran publicist Marika Flatt from PR by the Book to talk about:Whether or not traditional media still mattersThe difference between earned media, paid media, and everything in betweenWhat mistakes to avoid when giving interviewsThe surprising way Good Morning America and Joe Rogan differ when it comes to book salesWhether you're ready to hire a PR firm or just want to understand how media can help spread the word about your book, listen in or read the blog version of this episode.Support the show

Ci vorrebbe la penna di Agatha Christie dei '10 piccoli indiani' per descrivere il GP del Sachsenring vinto da Marc Marquez con soli altri nove piloti in pista.Solo il finale è diverso rispetto al romanzo dell'autrice britannica perché l'assassino del Gran Premio è chiaro fin dalle prime mosse, anche se pure lui, nel recente passato, ha fatto finta di morire - solo agonisticamente - per il notorio incidente del 2020.Ed invece MarcTINATOR è tornato ed il Sachsenring ci ha offerto un Gran Premio in stile Orazi contro Curiazi, con gli avversari del MarcZIANO che si sono eliminati uno dopo l'altro: dapprima Fabio Di Giannantonio, quindi Marco Bezzecchi, entrambi vittima di una caduta mentre inseguivano l'ingiocabile Marc.Una gara d'altri tempi, con distacchi di altri tempi: oltre sei secondi per il fratello Alex, sette per Bagnaia che senza fare sorpassi ha raccolto quanto il destino gli ha regalato. Settimo al via, Pecco è risalito sino alla quinta posizione - dal 4° sino al 17° giro - quando in rapida successione hanno lasciato la compagnia Di Giannantonio, al 18° passaggio e Bezzecchi, al 21°. Naturale dunque che, sul podio, non abbia abbondato in sorrisi.Leggete il seguito QUIE ascoltare Paolo Scalera, Carlo Pernat, Matteo Aglio e Riccardo Guglielmetti commentare il GP del Sachsenring.
Brian Castro's “The Chinese Postman” is a meditation on old age with a central character whose life mirrors his own. The story strays into fiction when the protagonist, Abe Quin, begins a correspondence with a woman seeking refuge from the war in Ukraine. This acclaimed work of autofiction is short-listed for this year’s Miles Franklin Award. + In Bronwyn Rivers’ menacing thriller “The Reunion” five friends meet for a weekend on a lonely property in the Blue Mountains. Ten years earlier they were amongst a group of six who went hiking in the area …only five returned. Now the survivors are being stalked by someone who wants to know what really happened to their friend Ed – it seems everyone has something to hide. + Our very assiduous random reader, Lesley, is currently reading “Pompeii” by Robert Harris and “Under the Banner of Heaven” by Jon Krakauer. She’s listening to the audio version of “Limberlost” by Robbie Arnott. Piled on her tsundoku are “The Island of Sea Women” by Lisa See, “The Wedding People” by Alison Espach, The Shardlake Series by CJ Sansom and “Kairos” by Jenny Erpenbeck.

In this episode, we dial in our love for Agatha Christie and Charlotte Brontë, as we discuss Black Orchid. How they were able to pack so much character intertaction AND a self-indulgent cricked match into only two episodes, we will never know. Join us as we discuss the introduction of our new favourite hero (or villain) in Gurgle Man, Sarah Sutton finally being able to show off her acting chops, the Watchers' new unit of measure: units of Adrics, and Anthony absolutely having a childhood moment with time spent around trains. Yes, in another life, he must have been a train engineer. We are so happy that we finally have a happy little TARDIS crew, despite the darker direction of the show.

Wow! Das Ende (wenn man es so nennen darf) hat uns doch ziemlich verwirrt zurückgelassen. Arthur und Peters bezeugen, wie der letzte Rest ihrer Mannschaft den Tod findet, und dann explodiert auch noch die Jane Guy (Vorsicht vor explosivem Nähzeug)! Die logische Konsequenz für das Duo: Erstmal eine Felsspalte häuslich einrichten und ein exzellentes Mahl fangen. Anschließend werden die beiden noch zu Höhlenforschern und finden doch äußerst merkwürdige Schriftzeichen(?) und Gänge in der Schlucht. Zu guter Letzt wagen Arthur und Peters doch noch eine Kletterpartie aus der Schlucht und können sich mit einem Kanu vom Acker machen – natürlich nicht, ohne noch einen armen Indigenen zu kidnappen. Und dann ist da noch das merkwürdige Ende und die riesenhafte weiße Gestalt ... sehr mysteriös! --- In der nächsten Folge erwartet euch ein Cozy-Crime-Intermezzo: The Affair at the Victory Ball oder Mord auf dem Siegesball von Agatha Christie.

You can find Colleen Gleason/Colleen Cambridge at her website www.colleengleason.com or on IG @colleengleason Typically Amy has not been a cozy mystery reader, but this week's guest, Colleen Gleason who also writes as Colleen Cambridge, may have single-handedly converted her. She is the author of over 57 books in numerous series but her “American in Paris” series has been a delightful escape over the last year. It is a cozy mystery set in postwar 1950s Paris with a dynamic mystery-solving duo featuring none other than Julia Child. Book 3 in the series titled A Fashionably French Murder was published in April. So we were thrilled when Colleen agreed to chat with us about this series as well as several of her other books. Colleen's style of writing often includes a pairing. She has a mystery series that involves Agatha Christie and her housekeeper, another series featuring Abraham Lincoln and his aide, and even a steampunk paranormal YA series involving an imaginary crime-fighting pairing of Bram Stoker's younger sister and Sherlock Holme's niece. As we know from doing this podcast, having a partner-in-crime makes things much more fun. In our book rec section of the episode, we are all about gardens. We are not reviewing gardening books, however. Rather, we're talking about books in which gardens, gardeners, flowers and shrubs are part of the story in some format. We've got thrillers, middle grade, fantasy, contemporary family drama, murder mysteries, and Appalachian gothic.

Editor Susan Ryeland has left her Greek island, her hotel, and her Greek boyfriend Andreas in search of a new life back in England. Freelancing for Causton Books, she's working on the manuscript of a novel, Pund's Last Case, by a young author named Eliot Crace, a continuation of the popular Alan Conway series. Susan is surprised to learn that Eliot is the grandson of legendary children's author Marian Crace, who died some fifteen years ago—murdered, Elliot insists, by poison. As Susan begins to read the manuscript's opening chapters, the skeptical editor is relieved to find that Pund's Last Case is actually very good. Set in the South of France, it revolves around the mysterious death of Lady Margaret Chalfont, who, though mortally ill, is poisoned—perhaps by a member of her own family. But who did it? And why? In the television series, these characters are: Lesley Manville ... Susan Ryeland Tim McMullan ... Atticus Pünd Conleth Hill ... Alan Conway Daniel Mays ... Locke / Chubb Alexandros Logothetis ... Andreas Patakis Matthew Beard ... James Taylor/ James Fraser Michael Maloney ... Charles Clover We know actor Mark Bonnar is in the cast, I'd suspect he's playing Elmer Waysmith. #whodunnit #whodunit #susanryeland #atticuspund #anthonyhorowitz #murdermystery #clue #booktube
Bienvenidos a un nuevo podcast, veréis que el anterior es un podcast muy recomendable para el veranito, para escucharlo en la piscina, en la playa o en casa cuando nos aburrimos. Solo es charla, humor, cachondeo y tonterías…bueno, sí, y también exabruptos, muchos y de todos los colores…tápenle los oídos a los niños por favor. En este vamos a intentar demostrar que realmente es imposible censurar si se tiene un corazón dispuesto a descubrir la verdad. En The Truman Show, una película que explora los límites entre la realidad y la manipulación, hay un momento clave que ilustra perfectamente la lucha contra la censura. Christof, el creador del mundo artificial donde vive Truman, reflexiona sobre el control que ejerce sobre su vida. En una escena en el centro de control, dice: 'Si él estuviera absolutamente decidido a descubrir la verdad, no podríamos impedírselo.' Esta frase resuena como un reconocimiento tácito de que, por más que se intente censurar o ocultar la realidad, la voluntad humana de buscar la verdad puede superar cualquier barrera. Christof, consciente de las cámaras, los guiones y las ilusiones que ha construido, admite que la determinación de Truman podría desmantelar todo ese sistema de control. Es un poderoso recordatorio de que la censura, por más sofisticada que sea, choca contra el impulso innato de cuestionar y descubrir. Ya que como he dicho al principio, en el podcast anterior estuve totalmente de cachondeo voy a aprovechar en este para hablarles de algo muy serio, aunque en modo alguno quiero que la conversación se centre en lo que voy a contarles ahora. Muchos ya lo habían leido en forma de hilo en Twitter, le puse la lista maldita o la lista de la muerte aunque como verán no les voy a proporcionar ningún nombre de la misma salvo el mio. Sé que es malo para mi volver a pronunciar estas duras palabras, pero sé también que alguien debe hacerlo, ya que lo que se cuenta aqui es grave. Vamos allá. Dios me puso en la lista de la muerte. Bueno… quizás no me he explicado del todo bien. Todos vamos a morir algún día, eso lo sabemos. Es un destino inevitable, inscrito en el misterioso libro de los designios divinos. Nadie escapa, nadie sabe con certeza el cuándo ni el cómo. Pero yo no hablo de esa lista universal, abstracta y remota, donde todos los seres vivos compartimos nuestro turno hacia el olvido. Hablo de otra lista. Una lista más oscura. Más real. Más inmediata. Una lista maldita. Una donde los nombres que aparecen no envejecen y mueren de viejos. Simplemente… desaparecen. Caen como piezas de dominó empujadas por una mano invisible, pero firme. Como en una de esas novelas de Agatha Christie donde la muerte es paciente, meticulosa y juega con reglas que nadie entiende. En concreto, como en Diez negritos, esa historia inquietante en la que diez desconocidos son invitados a una isla remota, y uno a uno van siendo asesinados siguiendo los versos de una antigua rima infantil. Nadie puede escapar. Nadie está a salvo. Yo estoy hablando de algo parecido. Pero más siniestro. Porque esto no es ficción. Esta lista existe. Y yo estoy en ella. No sé si Dios me incluyó, pero desde luego entraba en sus planes que acabara aquí. Haciendo historia. O haciéndome polvo. No es una lista literaria, ni una metáfora poética. Es una lista judicial. Fría. Oficial. Sellada con la tinta burocrática de los tribunales, pero con el hedor inconfundible de la tragedia. Es el registro de los investigados en un caso del que no puedo hablar. No por miedo, aunque lo tenga. No por decencia, aunque me la hayan intentado robar los petimetres y satanistas que si pueden hablar del caso. No puedo hablar porque me lo impiden las medidas cautelares impuestas por el juez. Y porque sé que, si hablo, la muerte acelerará el paso para alcanzarme. El caso… ese caso maldito… comenzó con doce nombres. Éramos doce. Doce personas vivas, jóvenes, fuertes. Con energía, con sueños, con errores, sí, pero también con futuro. De esas doce, siete han muerto desde que sus nombres fueron publicados. Siete. ¿Casualidad? Eso me gustaría creer. Lo intenté durante años. Me convencí de que la vida es imprevisible, que la muerte es caprichosa. Pero no. No así. No tan seguidas. No tan limpias. Algunos cayeron en accidentes absurdos. Otros, sin aviso, desarrollaron cáncer de hígado o de pulmón en cuestión de semanas. Un infarto a los treinta y cuatro. Un suicidio sin carta ni explicación. Directores de medios independientes que desaparecen sin dejar rastro. Todos distintos. Todos muertos. Y siempre, en todos los casos, el silencio. El vacío. El olvido inmediato. Nadie investiga. Nadie pregunta. Los pocos que lo hacen acaban igual o simplemente… desaparecen del foco. Porque aquí actúa algo incluso más perverso que el poder: el periodismo que calla. Ningún medio importante se ha hecho eco. Ningún titular. Ninguna sospecha. La verdad se ahoga entre correcciones de estilo y cambios de última hora que nadie ordena, pero todos acatan. Como si la lista fuera intocable. Como si la sombra que la envuelve se tragara cualquier intento de arrojar luz sobre ella. Es como en Scream, aquella película de Wes Craven. Aunque allí no hay lista explícita, la muerte recorre el guion con la misma precisión. Uno a uno. Siempre dejando al siguiente con el aliento entrecortado, con la sospecha y el miedo clavándose como un alfiler en el estómago. ¿Quién será el próximo? No se trata solo de una secuencia de muertes. No. Esto es mucho más grande. Estamos atrapados en una especie de Odisea sin retorno, una travesía tenebrosa en la que cada nombre marcado en la lista es como un canto fúnebre anunciado por las sirenas. Un cuento épico sin héroes, sin redención, donde los monstruos no habitan islas remotas, sino los despachos de justicia, los informes sellados y las miradas que ocultan más de lo que muestran. Es una historia escrita con sangre, donde solo puede quedar uno. Como en los antiguos relatos de guerreros malditos, condenados a enfrentarse entre ellos sin conocer siquiera las reglas del juego, sin saber cuál es la verdadera amenaza: si el enemigo exterior… o la culpa que cada uno lleva dentro. Aquí no hay aliados, solo sobrevivientes temporales. Luchamos por mantenernos cuerdos, por resistir la sospecha, por evitar que el miedo nos haga cometer el más mínimo error. Estamos en mitad de una epopeya cruel y silenciosa, una especie de ritual sin sacerdotes ni testigos. Un camino que no se recorre con espadas ni escudos, sino con paranoia, con cautela, con noches en vela. Y en este cuento, al contrario que en los mitos antiguos, los dioses no ayudan. Callan. Miran desde lejos. O tal vez son ellos quienes escribieron esta lista para divertirse viendo cómo caemos uno por uno. No hay gloria en esta lucha. No habrá poemas para los que mueran. Nadie contará nuestras gestas ni esculpirá nuestros nombres en piedra. Solo quedará el eco de nuestras ausencias, el vacío que dejamos, la sospecha que nunca se aclara. Y, al final, el único que quede en pie no será un héroe… será apenas un espectador que logró mantenerse oculto entre los cadáveres. Una odisea sin Ítaca, sin regreso, sin hogar posible. Éramos extraños que coincidieron en señalar algo que no debían. Un secreto inconfesable. Una maldad intrínseca del sistema que no debía ser revelada. Gente sin conexión aparente, pero marcados por algo que no comprendimos a tiempo y que nos hizo terminar en esta lista maldita: peluqueros, periodistas alternativos, investigadores aficionados al misterio, divulgadores y buscadores de la verdad, toxicómanos arrepentidos, mujeres de la limpieza, directores de cine, abogados y directores de medios de comunicación. Yo conocí personalmente a algunos. Incluso compartí abogado con uno de ellos. Pero nunca fuimos un grupo. Ni una red, ni una banda organizada. Apenas coincidencias. Cruces de caminos. Algunos, dicen, se libraron por intervención divina. Por tener un corazón tan puro que el demonio no pudo rubricar su sentencia. Otros, supuestamente, por hacer tratos con la Fiscalía. No voy a dar nombres. Pero sí diré que, entre los que quedamos vivos, al menos hay un masón. Y evidentemente, no soy yo. Vuelvo a formular la pregunta ¿Quién será el próximo? Yo. Yo soy el próximo. Lo siento en los huesos. En las madrugadas que se arrastran lentas. En los ruidos del pasillo cuando todo debería estar en calma. En las llamadas sin respuesta. En los rostros que me miran demasiado tiempo… o que me evitan. En los hackeos de los teléfonos familiares. En los dispositivos de rastreo encontrados en mis propios zapatos. En los coches que llevan meses aparcados en el mismo descampado, apuntando siempre hacia mi casa. He dejado de dormir bien. He dejado de hablar con los pocos que aún me quedan. Vivo como si cada día fuera el último, con la certeza de que alguien, en algún lugar, ha marcado ya la fecha y la hora. Y, sin embargo, escribo esto. Tal vez sea una confesión. Tal vez una advertencia. O quizá solo un último intento desesperado de que, si mañana mi nombre aparece en la sección de sucesos, alguien recuerde estas líneas y comprenda que no fue una casualidad. Que nunca fui un suicida. Y que siempre juré que jamás me suicidaría. Porque tal vez Dios me puso en la lista de la muerte… Pero alguien más decidió adelantar su turno. 28/ Saludos a los satanistas, sectarios, gentes de mala fe, pederastas, ratas varias y agentes del Estado (GC, PN, CNI, Edite y demás). Habéis realizado un trabajo magnífico robando datos, recopilando información y difundiendo mentiras. Ahora toca esperar a que salga la verdad. Hasta aqui este breve texto que escribí a borbotones, casi desangrándome y pateando la sangre de mi desgracia. No van a ganar, soy lo suficientemente fuerte y estoy protegido por algo que ellos nunca gozaran, mi creencia en Dios. Así que como he dicho antes, vamos a correr un tupido velo sobre este tema e ir al meollo del asunto que nos trae hoy aqui. ……………………………………………………………………………………….

Een vrijgezellenfeest met vriendinnen op een tropisch eiland. Perfecte setting voor een feestje. Toch? Een plottwist als die van Agatha Christie, maar dan met Instagram en te veel prosecco. Uitgegeven door Uitgeverij De Fontein Spreker: Ricky Koole
On today's show, Joe wants to celebrate their podcast. So him and David both count their blessings about how much they enjoy doing it and come up with some new ideas for it too. First up is ‘We Did Wednesdays', where David goes out to experience something new and then reports back on the pod about it. And to get the ball rolling, he books in a visit to Agatha Christie's house. Then David wants to tell Joe about how proud he is to have played cricket for Sussex as a teenager. So sit back and relax as he weaves another of his magical tales - the conclusion of which will be in tomorrow's episode (you know how these things go).

Humans are enthralled by stories about murder. And the mysteries we tell these days – like in the Glass Onion films or TV shows like The Residence – often follow a blueprint set by the iconic Agatha Christie. It turns out, Christie knew a whole lot about science. In this episode, we speak to Dr Kathryn Harkup, a chemist who writes about the science behind famous works of literature. Her newest book, V is for Venom: Agatha Christie's Chemicals of Death, is her sequel to A is for Arsenic: The Poisons of Agatha Christie, exploring Christie's expert use of dark chemistry. She tells us about some of the poisons Christie used in her books – the brutal, the medicinal and the obscure – revealing Christie's extensive chemical knowledge.
