Hello,
I hope you all had a very merry Christmas. I had a lovely time with my family over here in California. It was super warm, which you probably think sounds brilliant and maybe compared to the wind and rain back home it was, but I still missed that very special English feeling that you just don't get over here. It feels much less Christmasy here, although it was nice to pop to the beach for a walk on Christmas Eve morning.
I know I've been a bit lazy recently with the blog but there's a good reason. I've been super busy working on book number four while also still working on THIS FAMILY LIFE. The good news is that THIS FAMILY LIFE is now with my lovely proofreader and it's looking good for an early release next year. I don't have a definite date yet, but hopefully I'll know soon. I'm really excited for you to read it. The people who have read it so far have loved it and I honestly think it's a better book than THIS THIRTYSOMETHING LIFE. I'll let you be the judge of that though.
So book number four is under way. It's still very much in it's infancy but I can tell you that it's a story about family. It's going to be another comedy, but it's definitely going to have lots of drama, lashings of heartwarming, truthful and bitter sweet moments and hopefully it's going to be a book that everyone can relate to because we all have family. We all have parents that annoy us, kids that we despair of and we've all had those big family arguments. It's going to be told in a very interesting way though. I'm not going to give anything away now, but it's a really cool idea and I hope it's something that's going to get people excited.
I mainly wanted to write this blog to say THANK YOU. Thanks to everyone that's made my 2013 a brilliant year and one I'll never forget. I had two books published this year and I've had loads of fan emails and tweets and it's been one of the best years of my life..so THANK YOU! I also want to wish you all a very happy 2014. It's going to be an amazing year for us all, I can feel it.
Big love to you all.
Hugs,
Jon X
