About the author

Jane Wenham-Jones is the author of six novels – her latest is The Big Five O – and three non-fiction books. Wannabe a Writer? is a humorous look at the trials and tribulations of becoming a scribe and Wannabe a Writer We've Heard Of? is a how-to on PR and self-promotion. 100 Ways to Fight the Flab (and still have wine and chocolate) is full of useful tips to combat Writer's Bottom - an occupational hazard often encountered after reading the first two! Jane has also contributed to several short story anthologies and two cookery books, the latter being a particular achievement since she barely knows where the kitchen is. As a freelance journalist, she has had numerous short stories and articles published in women’s magazines and the national press and is the agony aunt for Writing Magazine. Jane has appeared on a variety of TV shows – from Ready, Steady, Cook to The Politics Show - and dozens of radio programmes. As an interviewer she has "been in conversation with" hundreds of big-name authors and celebrities, has presented the Romantic Novel of the Year awards for the past nine years and is regularly booked as an after-dinner speaker.

Reviews

[Richard Goodrum · Rating 4 out of 5]

Good solid advice for authors. This work contains ten letters inquiring about common author issues. The advice given is straightforward and helpful. Definitely worth reading: either all at once or one letter a day.

Easy-to-read. Entertaining. Informative. Inspirational.

A very useful book

A humorous approach to the problems we all encounter. It’s so nice to know you’re not alone with the issues dealt with here.

Good sound sense, administrated with humour. Worth a read and a chuckle.
