Films, novels and comics

Hear from the Dudley writer has finished the book started by her late mother. Plus the team behind horror-comedy feature Bad Things, made in Worcestershire. With Nina Das Gupta.

We're celebrating the best creatives where we live, including:

• 'I finished the novel my late mother started': Hear the incredible story of Dudley's Kay Louise Bowen, who became the unexpected co-author of the book 'Secrets' which could have otherwise been lost to cleaning up hard drives!

• Ready for spooky season, discover the new horror-thriller Bad Things, filmed in Worcestershire, ready to turn your goosebumps up to 11 and keep you implanted on the edge of your seat.

• What would you spend £900,000 on? We meet the people behind the local town who have picked up this massive sum of money and say they're ready to make a difference to the arts.

• Hear from one of the stars of this year's BBC New Comedy Awards, Chloe Reynolds, who made a huge impression in this week's Birmingham heat. From Newcastle she's ticking this massive gig off the bucket list.

• Forget Marvel and DC - we meet the newest player in the comic book game. Born in the Black Country, now in Pershore, hear from the man who wields his pens like Michelangelo wielded his paint - and has been sending his work all over the world.
