I’ve had lots of new followers recently. Thanks! So I thought it might be time for a Meet the Author post.👋 I read 80+ books a year: novels (mostly), short stories, non-fiction, and memoir. And recently a few people have asked me how I find the time. The answer is simple really: I prioritise reading, like you might for anything you love doing. But if you want to increase how often you read, which is not about reading faster, but just spending more time doing it, here are some of the things I do that might help: In December I’m teaching on an @arvon__ residential creative writing course called, Fiction: Reaching the End. It at The Hurst in Shropshire and there are only a few spaces left so grab them while you can. The Radiant Dark by @ali.oliva is a family drama told with a backdrop of the human race’s first, and ongoing, communication with aliens. It starts in 1980 and I really enjoyed how Oliva puts us in an alternative reality and has considered all the things that would change if we’d had messages from aliens. Throw back Thursday to fifteen years ago when #librarianhusband moved in with me and we combined our books to make one library. We had lots of duplicates which we discarded one of, keeping only a few doubles, including The Year of Magical Thinking by Joan Didion which had kind of brought us together. Eight brilliant novels featuring lonely women (no lonely goats here). I love novels about lonely women, happy or sad in their aloneness, weird or dislikeable, I want to pour them a cup of tea and ask them to tell me all about it. Don’t be put off by this rather trashy cover, The House Next Door (published in 1978) is the best kind of literary horror (think Rosemary’s Baby or The Haunting of Hill House). But you might be put off by how difficult it is to get a hold of, especially in the UK – so any UK editors who might be interested in a republishing project please read on. This is Anne Rivers Sidden’s only horror novel, the other 18 were southern US family dramas. The audio book of Hunger and Thirst is available in the UK from @xigxag_official for just £3.99 during August, and without a subscription. Such a great event @thegreenbookshop in Herne Bay last night. Thanks to Jacqui for hosting and to everyone for coming including @thelibraryofimagination. Plus I got to spot Cliff Richard! 😂 Scroll along to see.
