My big news this week is the imminent release of Work in Progress from Unbound. A comic novel-in-emails about an eccentric writer’s group in Crawley, it began life as Kitten on a Fatberg and was crowdfunded by Unbound. My co-authors and I are so grateful to everyone who supported the book. 

The book was released early on The Pigeonhole mobile book club, where it's already received some fantastic reviews: 

‘This is so cleverly written. I’m enjoying it so much!’

‘This is such an entertaining read! Love this dysfunctional group of characters’ 

‘This book is a laugh a line’

Also very proud of this quote from Luke Kennard (even if it’s better written than our entire book!): 

‘Excruciatingly well-observed, Work in Progress is a deeply funny epistolary novel with the kind of comic timing that caused me frequent physical pain… A masterpiece of passive-aggression that somehow combines skewering the most monstrous kind of mediocrity and delusion with genuine affection, humanity and wit. I couldn’t put it down and read it in one day. I never do that.’ 

We hope to have details soon of launch events - a bookshop bash and a Zoom sesh too hopefully. Meanwhile, you can order from Amazon, Blackwell’s, Waterstones, my shop and more - hope to have it on Bookshop.org soon too.
