Hello! Cheers from Barcelona :). I'm so glad you've enjoyed your time here.

I just wanted to say thank you for writing this. As an aspiring author of thirty-something, I felt I really need to read something like this today.

All the best for the next 23 years (and days)!

For what it's worth, I was 38 years old when my first book was published, 42 when I was able to quit my day job, 48 before I had a bestseller, in my 50s before anything I wrote was adapted for film . . .

How do you manage to be hilarious and heartbreaking within the same few paragraphs? And can we talk about that fabulous vibrator/scepter?) I say keep having fun, sister. ❤️
