I love Hannah's Bookshelf on North Manchester FM. It's a booklover's treasure trove, and Hannah Kate is a big champion of Greater Manchester writers. We chatted about books, writing, editing... you name it. Click the pic to go to the show. You'll find my interview around 1:26 in, but the whole show is well worth a listen.

Exciting News!
I've won second prize for Fitful Head in the international Writing On The Wall Pulp Idol first chapter competition!
At the Final on May 27th, twelve finalists had to read their first chapters to a panel of judging agents, publishers and authors, and answer their questions about the work. Incredibly nerve-racking but so thrilling when they announced me in second place.
Look out for an anthology due in December of all twelve finalists' first chapters. It'll be called...you guessed it... Firsts.

Recent TV interview
Bay TV Liverpool's "About Books" show invited me along to talk about "Rowan's Well" and my soon-to-be-published novel "Fitful Head". The conversation ranged from fathers to ghosts, from the joys of self-publishing to the wisdom of giving up gainful employment to dedicate oneself to writing. Clue: it isn't wise...don't do it.
My interview is about 11 minutes into the show, though the first feature is interesting too.
