Pub date & salon
Monday, 4 November 2019

A huge thank you to all who've supported (and I'll be seeing some of you at the Salon Night to thank you personally). Do please tell your friends about the book and encourage them to pledge. In…

Seems like a week ago
Wednesday, 12 June 2019
So, a week after launching my new novel JACOB'S ADVICE with the good people at Unbound we are 15% funded with almost 60 supporters. All the Early Bird hardbacks have been snapped up, and seven of you are joining me for a Salon Night of heavy literary yak and good red wine... A fine start! A massive thank you to all who have backed the book so far... It means a great deal to me that you've dug deep…
