Let’s do our best to make this an always thing. Readers with Goodreads/Amazon accounts can still review books purchased elsewhere. Indi & new writers especially need & value reader ratings/reviews. When you give a positive review, new writers read it & tell their friends. They value your every word
Good morning and on this 'Blue Friday.'
If you are able, please do buy your books from bricks and mortar bookshops or: Bookshop.org.uk
They pay all their taxes and don't waste money on phallic space dreams.

Thanks to all the new readers and of course, to all the saintly booksellers who have supported the book 🙏
TV series of Leonard & Hungry Paul has concluded & the responses have been phenomenal.
We have never ever sold so many copies of a book in a 3 month period like this.
With Rónán appearing on BBC Radio 4 soonish & the TV series on RTÉ next year, fingers crossed it continues!

Both are inventive, unique, heartfelt.
