Today, some four years after I began to write it, I held my short story collection, How the Light Gets In, in my hands. The photo makes clear how I feel about this, I think. I wrote more about its unusual route to publication in this BigBookend blog.
There will be free launch events in both London and Leeds, featuring readings, chattings, drinkings & YOU. I’ll also be talking on panels at the Northern Short Story Festival and Greenwich Literary Festival. (Deets below).
