In March 2020, when the first Covid lockdown commenced in the UK, I decided to write the story that had been with me for 6 or 7 years.

 A year later I had finished the manuscript and I am delighted to announce that I have entered into a contract with Penguin Southeast Asia for the publication in due course of my story, which I have titled

THE LAST GREAT LOVE SONG

 The story is a historical fantasy about love, loss, and palace intrigue in a Malayan court. I will let you have more news as events unfold.
