It’s episode 217 with Samuel Burr, ex-TV executive turned author with his debut book, The Fellowship of Puzzlemakers. This is a lovely chat covering Samuel’s journey to publication, how his time spent filming in a retirement village inspired his book, pitching tips and, of course, the book that saved his life.

Samuel studied at Westminster Film School and was a freelance TV executive, where he developed and produced loads of popular-factual shows including BBC Four’s Make: Craft Britain, and the BAFTA-nominated Secret Life of 4-Year-Olds. Samuel’s writing was shortlisted for Penguin’s WriteNow scheme and in 2021 he graduated from the Faber Academy. He lives in London with his partner Tom and their cat Muriel. And his debut novel, The Fellowship of Puzzlemakers is out everywhere right now.
