Did I see a wee request for an author spotlight perchance Marje? I may possibly have a few slots available between my own writing and such like. Although, I do believe I said I’d do one before you published this yes? Give me the nod if you are up for it 🙂

Hi Gary, I’m looking for reviews and/or author spotlights. As far as author spotlights are concerned I’m compiling a list of folk who may be keen to spotlight me leading up to my paperback launch so I could add you to my list? If that’s ok?

Absolutely Marje; would love to be involved. Just let me know when its nearing. All I’d need from you is a press pack or equivalent (if you have one; if not I’d strongly suggest making one to save time and energy later). Not as scary as it sounds; author image, author bio, book blurb, social media links, purchase links and (for me) three random things about you 🙂

I like the three random things that sounds fun! Thanks Gary it’ll be fantastic to be featured on Fiction Is Food. 🙂

No worries there Gary, I love ice-cream! But, I expect there will be a few unexpected things about me too. Maybe I might make something up! xx
