About this episode

<p>Ian Moore returns to the podcast to talk about his career shift from stand up comedy to writing "cosy" crime novels. After several decades as a professional stand-up comedian, Ian has transitioned to writing murder mysteries. Now he is a bestselling author and his books are being adapted for television. In this episode Ian talks about ending his stand-up comedy career, why he was not suited for life as the host of a guesthouse, writing books on trains, and why his COVID lockdown was actually great. </p><p>πŸ”— Episode page on teacherluke.co.uk πŸ‘‰ <a href="https://teacherluke.co.uk/2025/02/10/921-from-comedy-to-cosy-crime-with-ian-moore/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://teacherluke.co.uk/2025/02/10/921-from-comedy-to-cosy-crime-with-ian-moore/</a></p><p>πŸ“„ Get the PDF transcript πŸ‘‰ <a href="https://teacherluke.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/921.-From-Comedy-to-Cosy-Crime-with-Ian-Moore.pdf" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://teacherluke.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/921.-From-Comedy-to-Cosy-Crime-with-Ian-Moore.pdf</a></p><p>πŸ“š Ian's books πŸ‘‰ <a href="https://www.ianmoore.info/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.ianmoore.info/</a></p><br><p><br></p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
