In conversation with writer Sam Blake
The Sunday Show
Sunday, 11 January 2026 - 41 minutes
This week on The Sunday Show we chatted to Vanessa Fox O’Loughlin, better known as Sam Blake, one of Ireland’s bestselling crime writers.
Vanessa shared expert advice and practical steps for anyone who has always wanted to write a book but didn’t know where to start — from taking that first leap to finally getting your story onto the page — and why there’s never been a better time to start writing.
She also spoke about her latest crime thriller, Your Every Move, which is out now. The novel centres on Rosie Kinsella, a successful real estate agent whose carefully curated life begins to unravel when she realises she’s being watched — and that someone knows far more about her than they should. As the tension builds, Rosie is forced to confront secrets from her past and ask just how safe her perfect life really is.
An inspiring and gripping conversation for aspiring writers, crime-fiction fans, and anyone who’s ever dreamed of writing their own book.
