It’s the final day of my 12 Novels of Christmas which means it’s my 12th novel The Woman with all the Answers. So many midlife women are somehow making Christmas happen and every woman should have a Pauline from Halifax in their life! @boldwoodbooks.bsky.social #books #novels #kindle #booksky

It’s day 11 of my 12 Novels of Christmas and it’s my 11th novel In Little Stars. It’s a modern day reimagining of Romeo and Juliet set against a backdrop of a Brexit divided Leeds. It was sadly inspired by a racist attack on a friend and her ten-year-old son on a train. It’s also my favourite novel.

Day 10 of my 12 Novels of Christmas and it’s my 10th novel, One Moment. It was Radio 2 Book Club pick but unfortunately we went into Covid lockdown just after it came out. So if you missed the heartwarming story of Finn and Kaz’s friendship, now’s a good time to catch up! #booksky

It’s that time of year when as fast as you try to empty your inbox, some random company you bought something from in January sends you a ‘festive greeting’ or plugs their sale.

It’s day 7 of my 12 Novels of Christmas, which means it’s my 7th novel, While My Eyes Were Closed. It became the 5th biggest selling novel on Amazon the year it was published! It was my first psychological thriller and was inspired by my young son being disturbingly good at hide and seek! #booksky

Day 6 of my 12 Novels of Christmas and it’s my sixth novel, The Marriage Mender. Alison is a relationship counsellor but the only marriage she can’t seem to save is her own. Family drama, an ex with serious issues, laughter and tears, it’s got it all!

I’ve been getting these regularly to my author website. They usually drop in some specific details about my books (no doubt from AI) before asking for money to promote my books. I just block but you could send a link to iplayer with ‘you may wish to note the above’!

When your editor gives your new novel a big thumbs up and the editorial note ‘her Bambi diatribe is brilliant’ - which I reckon is a first 😂 My new novel will be out next March from @boldwoodbooks.bsky.social #booksky

In years to come people will watch that press conference held in the week the UN confirmed a genocide in Gaza and wonder how a UK PM and a US president didn’t mention it and handpicked journalists they knew wouldn’t either.

HEY!
I'm trying to raise money to send as many books as I can to a new Mobile Library being set up to support homeless people.
It's being organised by Cee, founder of London based charity "PINT Giving".
I'm donating £100, but if you can help too, i'd be really grateful.
