My New Book
Hello
We are having such a good summer here in the UK. I can't quite believe it! I am a permanently shiny sweaty beast, but with a smile on my face, so that's the quit pro quo!
I wanted to tell you a little bit more about my book, Reap
I set out to write another romance novel, but as time moved on I ended up writing a book that was also about love in general.
One of the keys things I wanted to explore was the way in which our culture directs us to require a sense of belonging, as opposed to one of responsibility. This can often separate us rather than bringing us together. I started from the basis that if we only really belong to ourselves we would become guests on the planet and in other people’s lives, which is something the main character eventually comes to terms with in the novel.
I also wanted to look at how we struggle to adapt to new places, people and ideas. It can often be deeply painful experiences that result in a process of transformational change, that is ultimately truly rewarding and stops us from taking life and each other for granted.
Anyway, the book is now out there and I really hope you enjoy reading it as much as I have writing it.

New Book
Hello There
I have a new book. It's called Reap. It was an idea I had about 10 years ago, but have been too scared to write, so wrote everything and anything else instead.
It was definitely a case of blood, sweat and tears with this one, but nothing happens before it's time.
The book will be available on NetGalley over the next week just in time for the summer holidays.
We're having glorious wall-to-wall sunshine here in the UK. I hope it's sunny wherever you may be!
