OCTOBER 2020

Delighted to say my new book, Tripping the Flash Fantastic, is now out (Chapeltown Books). I’ll be talking about this book on Chat and Spin Radio on 3rd October 2020 and hope to share the link to the interview later.  I will also be appearing on blogs in the next couple of weeks and will share the links.

And I’ll be holding a cyberlaunch on Saturday 10th October 2020 between 7 pm and 9.30 pm UK time. Hope to see you there! Book cover and screenshot of some reviews below.

The link takes you to a bonus Chandler’s Ford Today post. I was delighted to take part in The Writing and Marketing Show podcast hosted by Scottish crime writer, Wendy H. Jones. We discuss flash fiction and I share tips and some thoughts on where to find publication etc. Hope you enjoy! This is the first time I’ve taken part in a podcast and it was good fun.
