This is a nice thing that happened!

Next week the paperback of #TheTwenty is out in the wild. At the same time as a million celebrity Xmas books. So if you fancy a preorder it would be very much appreciated. And Chris Whitaker liked it and he’s never wrong (thank you, Chris!)

I do a version of it most years though tend to write fast and frantic anyway as - low boredom threshold. I’ve got 45k to get done by Dec and will use it to get over the finish line. I do roughly know the story which helps

Here’s a bit of a random ask!

I am looking for books written by family carers about their experiences of caring - like The Reluctant Carer, An Extra Pair of Hands by Kate Mosse, Who Cares by Emily Kenway, Twelve Moons by Caro Giles or Tender by Penny Wincer.

📚💙Thank you for your help!
