I'm currently searching for novels (any genre) that have a physical health condition at their heart. A character with the symptoms/condition - or going through the diagnosis. Books that resonated with readers, who wrote this in their review or even contacted the author directly.

There would be no #TheBill without Barry Appleton. The original police advisor & lead writer in the 1980s, he was key to its success 📺🚨 At 86, he's made his podcast debut! 🚔🎧 I'm honoured to have co-written Barry's true crime memoir #TwentiethCenturyCop for @penswordbooks 📚

So proud to have commissioned this remarkable book, published through my company @FDpublishing with the commitment and expertise of @sethburkett and @JanePurdon. Huge thanks to literary legend @frankcottrell_b for getting behind it, especially as he's a Red! #TheresGonnaBeAShow
A packed house for @MulvilleJimmy discussing his love letter to #Everton - There’s Gonna Be A Show with (lifelong Red) @frankcottrell_b. A gorgeous chat about the importance of football & how woven it is through the lives of Jimmy & his family over the years ⚽️ 💙

I’m so excited that Little Secrets will finally be released in October. I first planned this book & started writing it in October 2019. Today, I realised that no one else is as excited about this – or particularly excited at all. But I will retain my excitement & enthusiasm. 😜

It’s reassuring to see that supportive book-loving people are still on here. If any authors or bloggers would like a digital ARC of Little Secrets, please get in touch. It’s a creepy locked room mystery set in an old Victorian prison that’s been converted into a luxury hotel.
I’m not sure why I’m still posting on here as I’m not convinced anyone sees me. But I have some exciting book news!! Little Secrets is on its way. Limited numbers of digital ARCs for authors & bloggers should be available from next week.
