Thought I would share with you this wonderful photo sent to me by a fan, Carolyne Michael, taken on a family holiday in Cyprus last year – look carefully at their choices of beach reading!

One of the real joys of being an author is receiving fan mail, and a wonderful email such as this always gives me a real boost. Even more so around a nerve-wracking time like this with my new book just out – and struggling as ever against a deadline to finish the next!

So a huge thank you to Carolyne Michael and family, and to all those of you who have written to me over the years.

And now back to the grindstone….!
