My new novel has just been listed on Amazon, so this seems to be the moment when I say Get Yours Now! If you do and you enjoy it please let me know what it's about. I make this request because when I did my first interview about the book on Tuesday afternoon - on the phone with Big Issue in the North - I discovered that I'd forgotten almost everything that happens in it, what the characters are like and what the heck I thought the novel was, you know, about. Still, my interviewer said she liked it. That cheered me up no end and - get this! - I even think she wasn't lying.
Ooh, can you remember who the interviewer was? I only ask cos Ally (the boyf, aka AllyF) used to be the arts editor at Big Issue in t' North, and it was his job to commission these things.
Was it Tina Jackson? She interviewed me. She was nice.
(And no, it wasn't nepotism. The bastard insisted on getting someone impartial and not telling them who I was, and refused to do a feature on me. Pah. What's the point of having boyfs in high places if they refuse to use their powers to do evil?)

Nope, not Tina. Her name was Leanne and she was from Liverpool. I didn't find out anything else about her, not even her favourite colour. By the way, Clare, check this blog again from 9.12 tomorrow morning. Heh, heh, heh....
