Breathe Now Available on Audio
[image error]For those of you who love to read with their ears, Breathe is now available on audio 
Yes, you too can make yourself as happy as this cat by listening along to Jem and Rosie’s water-logged, Manchester-based shenanigans. Nicola Victoria Vincent is doing the narration so, obviously, it’s fabulous – Jem is cute as a button, Rosie did funny things to my knees, and they’re all kinds of lovely together. Enjoy!

It’s a Perfect Day to Bake Biscuits…
It’s pouring down and miserable here which means it’s a perfect day for baking something calorific. After reading Breathe, a few people have asked what the hell an Aztec biscuit is having failed to find them via google. According to my mum, they’re a recipe she copied years ago from a daytime TV show and our family have been baking and scoffing them ever since. They are not things of beauty but oh my, they are delicious.

Breathe Translation Guide
It seems to have come as a surprise to a handful of early readers that Breathe, my sixth book to be written in Northern English, is in fact written in Northern English. In an effort to prevent excessive googling, I have put together a nifty (see below) glossary to assist in vocabulary expansion because everyone should be able to use the word “twerp” in a sentence. Pay close attention, now. There will be a test…

A Different Kind of Hero
I swore I’d never do it. Having been a paramedic for seventeen years, I swore I’d never write a book about one. Don’t get me wrong, I’ve written books where paramedics have had recurring roles or cameo appearances, and that was fine, but a paramedic in a lead role was another matter entirely, and not one I wanted to get involved in.
