Plum, Courgette & Green Bean Tart is her first memoir. Book two of the writing home series will feature m

Round the World anti-clockwise (counter-clockwise) with author Simon Michael Prior.

I’m delighted to introduce one of my favourite fun travel memoir authors this month. Simon Michael Prior has not been writing all that long (his first book came out the same year as mine) but has already produced five cracking travel books with more on the way. If you’ve not begun his South Pacific Shenanigans series, then put this blog down and go find them, right now; they’re that good!

Hi Simon,
