Today is publication day! My first ever YA book is out now and you can order it from your local bookshop, or buy it in paperback or Kindle HERE.

I had planned a much longer post talking about the book, what it’s about and what inspired me to write it. However, I just got back from New York and have been plagued with the most gruesome jet lag I’ve ever had. I’ve never had it so badly even when coming back from California. Example: yesterday, I had a meeting at 2pm. I woke up at 13.56. It was absolutely mortifying. (I made an apologetic phone call, fell into some clothes and into a taxi, and luckily got there ‘only’ 30 minutes late). Then last night, I went to bed at midnight and got to sleep probably around 5.30 am – I set my alarm for 8.30 am and I do remember hearing it but I woke up at 10.30. All of which is a long-winded way of saying that I am not bringing my A-game this week. But! Next week I’m on blog tour talking about the book in various places. And I’ll update also on my NY holidays which were fabulous. Meanwhile I’m off to have another coffee.
