Hi,

After much huffing, puffing, cajoling and caressing, I'm thrilled to let you know that my debut novel is now 92% funded. Which means we've arrived at the hardest part, the final mile, the last few per cent. 
I have one last favour to ask all you wonderful people – friends, family, colleagues, complete strangers – who have contributed so far by pledging to help me publish A Melancholy Event: please help spread the word, tell people about this strange little novel I've written, pledge again, buy for a friend, anything to help me, and it, get over the line. 

To keep you going in the meantime, here is a link to a new audio extract from the novel:

And here is a link to Unbound's fundraising page.

See you on the other side!
