Novel Long Listing!

Updated: Oct 29, 2024

The darkest hour is the hour before dawn. After recent knock-backs, some exciting news - my new/unpublished novel has been long listed for the Cheshire Novel Competition (approx 2000 people entered). The feedback from the judging panel - an author, three literary agents plus a publishing director - was:

‘This is both a brilliant concept and written with style and precision. An absolute joy to

read. A very special thriller with substance, intrigue which grips from the first page.’


‘You have created in Dr Adam Gunn, such a remarkable character, he is utterly real and convincing.’


‘There is so much to like about this novel.’


I now have to try and make the short list. 🤞

Some people read to relax - some of us write.

Short list

Here’s the official word of my latest novel’s shortlisting. Awaiting the winner announcement soon. Fingers crossed.

Even more success!

I have made the short list of the Marlowe & Christie Novel Prize. Amazing news. Makes the hours and hours of writing in solitude worthwhile.
