Diary of a Debut Novelist

Find out how taking part in writing competitions has helped me and other authors secure publishing deals. Join us on Wednesday 24th February at 7pm. 

The Literary Consultancy Online Writers’ Day

Hear my reading of Kololo Hill as part of this fab Writers’ Day on 13th March. This event has a special significance because I won the The Literary Consultancy Pen Factor Live competition in 2017 after pitching and reading from Kololo Hill!

Jericho Writers Getting Published Month

Jericho Writers offer a range of help and support for unpublished writers. I was lucky enough to go to their York Festival of Writing in 2018 where I cam runner-up in the Best Opening Chapter competition. It’s such a thrill to take part in their Success Stories event on Saturday 27th March at 7pm!

Kololo Hill launch!

Last week was the launch of Kololo Hill. I cannot describe how wonderful it’s been and the publication day itself on 18th February was one of the best days of my life. I’ve had so many lovely messages from readers, writing community and book community, I’m overwhelmed! I spent most of the day on social media but managed to celebrate later with afternoon tea followed by a virtual party with writing friends. The night before, I had an amazing launch event hosted by Sarah Shaffi and organised by Picador. Sarah was brilliant and made me feel totally at ease. Despite the challenges of lockdown, I’ve had the most wonderful week!
