Writing for Wellbeing, Bookclubs and Watford One Town, One Book: a busy week!

This has been one of the busiest promotional week's for one of my books that I've ever had! And believe me, I'm not complaining! I was filmed for a promotional video about One Town, One Book (yes, that is the Mayor holding my book! Eep!) created by Ray from Take Action Media. You can see …

One Town, One Book: The Book of Us

I'm thrilled to share that The Book of Us has been chosen as the read of choice for the One Town, One Book scheme run by Watford Borough Council. What does it mean? Well, people across Watford will all be reading the book at the same time, which is very exciting! There will be a …

When a hospital waiting room sparks a novel…

I was sitting in the hospital waiting room when I found the leaflet. I'm sure a story of sorts had existed in my head by then, because I had originally visualised The Book of Us as a series of letters between two best friends, one with a baby, begging for forgiveness, the other trying to …

What I’ve been reading during lockdown

I probably should have posted this earlier, as now months have passed and surely I should have a huge list of books?! Sadly I haven't been reading hugely, but the ones I have read have been crackers. I feel like lockdown brain has left me a little listless, with an even worse attention span than …

Being an author and getting the hell on with it

You know what's so entirely scary about being an author? It's not finishing the book. It's not even reading horrible reviews about the book or convincing yourself that you're the worst thing to ever happen to the written word and you must immediately fake your own death and never write again. It's the lack of …

Best friends and galentines day

I am so into crazy supportive female friendships right now. I write this whilst watching Booksmart for the first time ever (yeah, I'm always behind on everything, don't worry about it) and I am OBSESSED with this friendship. The support! The love! The overwhelming need to tell your bestie just how freaking amazing she is! …

Writing and Travel: exploring new places in fiction

So many of us love books because they give us an opportunity to enter a new world. Whether that's a magical, alternative world or a country you've always wanted to see, fiction can take us there. I'd argue, in a way that non-fiction doesn't. Seeing characters you know experience and explore somewhere gives us an …

Your writing goals for 2020

Well hello there! Happy new year! Are you thinking this is the year you write that book? Maybe you've been doing that for a while already, but you've got new goals a'brewing? Or maybe, like me, you're not entirely sure what your writing goals are. So many writing goals are based on things we have …

What is The Book of Us?

I haven't been quiet about revealing my new book. After almost a decade spent writing novels, this is the one I'm so incredibly excited about. I've spent the last two years working on it, and I remember the exact moment the idea struck. I was hoovering my flat, (shocking in itself) thinking about these two …

Week 7 #couchto5k I was only meant to run for 25 mins but I was listening to a podcast and stopped noticing I was running so carried on for a full 30. Excited to see how I can push this and get my speed up next! #happy #run #thehaveagos #jogging #selfcare #energy
Pretty nice day to start week 7 of #couchto5k :
Week 6 of #couchto5k done- ran for over 25 mins. Starting to feel more natural now. Which is great as I’ve signed up for a 10k in July! #fitness #selfcare #growthmindset #run #jog #walk #crawl #10ktraining
This is bloody genius. As expected from the excellent @hellyactonauthor @bonnierbooks_uk - #thecouple is out 27th May.
Draft four is about to leave the building. Lots of rewriting and rejigging. It’s still entirely too large. But I did it!
Started with a 5k, ended with a chocolate bunny slaughter #easter
