You told me you'd like to read a bit of STARTING FROM NOW...

Here's the prologue and first chapter.

• Prologue

• Chapter One

STARTING FROM NOW doesn't hit the shelves until October 5, but you've got the opportunity to get your hands on a copy, a month early!

What's the saying about never working with kids and animals?

Jack usually defies that saying, but today he wasn't acting quite the way I'd hoped he would!

Happy Monday!

Aren't Mondays sometimes a bit hard to get warmed up to? Hopefully, this will make your day a great day!

First up, exciting news! It's only six weeks until my new novel, STARTING FROM NOW, is released. You can preorder from Booktopia.

When I was on tour for WITHOUT A DOUBT, I came across this blue door (pictured on the computer screen). I was sitting in a narrow alleyway, drinking coffee (because I'm a bit like Detective Dave and nothing happens in the morning until I've had my coffee), when I saw it.

Have you ever wondered what happens the morning after a novel gets finished?

Screenshot of a laptop that has words on it, the end of a manuscript says THE END.

Check out this haul that I'm going to read over the next few weeks. Have you read any of them?

I LOVE Kerry McGinnis's writing, so I think The Roadhouse is going to be the first one I start on.
