  • Belle Kenyon (Spoken Label, May 2024)
    May 15 2024

    Latest up from Spoken Label (Author / Artist Podcast) features the return of our friend, Isabelle Kenyon.

    Isabelle Kenyon (Belle to me) is a Manchester writer and the author of 5 chapbooks including Growing Pains (Indigo Dreams). She has had work and articles published internationally and newspapers such as The Somerville Times and The Bookseller.

    She is also the founder of Fly on the Wall Press. Fly on the Wall is a social enterprise company and a not for profit publisher, based in Manchester. We publish high quality anthologies on pressing issues, chapbooks and poetry products, from exceptional poets around the globe, with socially conscious themes.

    This Podcast primarily talks about her debut novel 'The Dark within them'.

    The Dark within them is described as "In this gripping psychological thriller, faith-healer Amber thinks she's found peace in Lehi, the small Mormon town she's moved her family to. But when a death affects her family, her safe haven shatters. As the tight-knit community closes ranks to protect its secrets at all costs, Amber's world unravels. With her beliefs shaken and nothing feeling certain anymore, she's faced with an impossible choice: take a leap of faith to protect her loved ones, or risk losing everything by exposing the truth.

    "Luring you in with promises of happily ever after, Kenyon quickly removes any feelings of comfort..." - The Northern Bookworm

    But how far is too far when it comes to protecting those you love?

    A TIGHT-KNIT MORMON COMMUNITY.

    BODIES BURIED IN THE GARDEN.

    ONE FAMILY DIVIDED.

    ‘intense and compelling…an enormously talented writer’ - Shabnom Khanom

    'a honed and beautiful writing style…not your usual psychological thriller’ - Debz Hobbs-Wyatt

    'A must-read for fans of Paula Hawkins or M. T. Edvarsson... A gripping, pacy thriller.' - Northern Soul Magazine

    'Isolated and without even her faith to call on, Amber is left to determine how much darkness is really within her.' - The Northern Bookworm

    'Kenyon’s book explores themes of faith, motherhood and marriage with nuance. At the same time, the plot propels the reader forward with the claustrophobic tension of recent grip-lit classics like The Girl on the Train.' - Crime Culture Magazine"

  • Arini Vlotman (Spoken Label, May 2024)
    May 8 2024

    Latest up from Spoken Label (Author / Writer Podcast) features Arini Vlotman

    Arini advises she "a romance fanatic, book worm, book hoarder and writer. Writers are my superheroes; readers are my tribe. I’m a people’s person and a wordy nerd so I can find comfort in almost any space but there is nothing quite like being at home with my husband, son and fur babies.Living in Johannesburg, South Africa has given me a slightly quirky world view- we laugh at ourselves all the time here so sometimes my sense of humor doesn’t translate into my words. Be kind, I think I’m funny!One my favourite hobbies is Fangirling (is that a thing?). Musicians, books, movies or obscure characters, when I find something that I love I delve into that world like Harry Potter diving into the Whomping Willow."

    Her debut novel is "Pretty Average".
