Hi, thanks for visiting. I write contemporary fiction set in Birmingham and my first novel Park Life is out now. My next book, Deeds Not Words, is coming out very soon and if you sign up for my newsletter I'll send updates about my stories direct to your in box.

The brilliant Created in Birmingham website did a lovely feature on Park Life and I'm thrilled with some of the reviews the book is getting online - see what Vanity Case Books had to say. If you use Goodreads you can chat about the book there. I'd love to hear what you think.

I've been out and about  to talk about Park Life recently - see the 'Events' column opposite for details. People seem to enjoy hearing from Craig and Susan and I love chatting about all things book-related. Do get in touch if you have a book group or event you'd like me to attend. 

You can read sample chapters of the story over at Amazon. Or, if you already have the book, don't forget to check out the Park Life bonus material while you're here.

Park Life is available in paperback and Kindle format from Amazon, for Apple devices at iTunes, for Kobo and from the Sony ReaderStore.
