• A recent interview, plus recorded readings from both my books can be found onĀ here. Please do tune in!
  • Dead Ernest (published in February 2007) is now available in a large print edition (published by Magna). The Birds, the Bees and Other Secrets was published in August 2008.
  • A Dutch publishing company has bought the rights to publish The Birds, The Bees and Other Secrets, and the book is now in print. A Pan paperback edition is to be published in November 2009. There will also be a large print edition.
  • Two French publishing companies have been competing for the French rights for The Birds, The Bees and Other Secrets, and Macmilan have just reached a very satisfactory agreement with one of them. A French book club has also bought the rights for advance publication, and the book is now in print (with the fascinating title “les roses, les choux et autres secrets”…).
  • Dead Ernest is in the early stages of development into a film for television. This will be really exciting if it comes off, but the process is quite a long one. However, dotted lines have been signed, so I am cautiously optimistic, and writers have been found to produce the initial treatment.
  • I have recently acquired an agent. Broo Doherty, of Wade and Doherty, has agreed to represent me, and I am very much looking forward to working with her.
  • The paperback edition of The Birds, the Bees and Other Secrets is coming out (at long last) on May 7th, published by Pan Macmillan.
