Every Book is Somebody’s Baby

It’s often said that writing and publishing a book is like giving birth, but it’s probably worse due to the lengthy and unpredictable gestation period that’s involved.

Anyhow, my new novel My Life as a Bench is now out and available on Amazon UK and Amazon US etc.

My Life as a Bench

Recently I read the first chapter of my upcoming novel, MY LIFE AS A BENCH, at literary event Novel London.

Novel London, founded by novelist Safeena Chaudhry, fills a gap in London’s literary scene by providing a platform for emerging authors to read from their latest works. These readings are filmed and can be viewed on YouTube and the Novel London website.

For free tickets to the next event check out the Novel London website.

Version 2Rana Asfour is featuring a Q & A with me on BookFabulous:

Rana writes: ‘One of the most exciting thrillers to come out in 2015, I Came to Find a GirlĀ by Jaq Hazell (aka Jacqui Hazell) is the one you should be reaching for if dark, intense crime fiction is your thing. This deliciously intense novel about female art student Mia, and her entanglement with award-winning, renowned super artist Jack Flood has hit the shelves to very high praise.

‘Described by the Telegraph as ‘Dark, haunting, twisted’ and listed in their top best crime fiction for 2015, and described by yours truly as ‘a disturbing reflective book that will refuse to loosen its grip on you for some time’, BookFabulous thought it fitting that more be known about the author, her book and her writing.
