I don’t know about you, but when I read a book, I often wonder what was going through the author’s head as they wrote it. My latest novel, 24 Hours of Trouble, was inspired by the many horse shows I went to as a teenager plus a decade’s worth of trips to France to watch the […]

So, it’s evening on day 5 of 2017, and I’m already stuck into writing a new book. Well, I started writing it over Christmas but between one thing and another (okay, mainly Trev the horse going lame and then going lamer, but that’s another story), I haven’t finished it yet. Cursed will be my first […]

Today, I thought I’d stop by Riverley Hall and ask everyone’s favourite personal assistant a few questions. I’ve wanted to have a chat with him for a while, but it’s been hard to track down a man as busy as Bradley… EN: Have you got a few minutes? Bradley: How many is a few? There’s […]

Getting all philosophical today… At the beginning of December, I attended Wattpad’s London convention, held in the Crypt on the Green—a beautiful venue hidden away under an old church in Clerkenwell.
