New blog design
I’ve fiddled about with the blog design, as the more observant of you will no doubt have already noticed. I’m not sure about it at all, so if anyone has any opinions on the new look, let me hear them!

Current projects update
So, I’m still waiting to hear the final decision on one of my manuscripts from a top international publisher. They seem very interested, but I’m trying not to get my hopes up too much. Hopefully I’ll be hearing something this coming week, at which point I should be able to reveal a little more. Until then, my lips are sealed. I’ve now finished the rewrite of the first of the two books I did recently for Egmont. Did I say …
