Today I'm off to Exeter to talk to the lovely Judi Spiers at Radio Devon about my new book, Marriage and Other Games, which comes out on 21 October. I bumped into her at Appledore Festival on Saturday, where we were both appering. No doubt we will touch on the subject of chick lit while we are there, and whether it is dead. Absolutely not! There are still legions of people out there buying uplifting, heartwarming, life-affirming fiction, which provides a much deserved escape during these tough times. And books still provide remarkably good value for money. So go on - stick one in your trolley!
While I'm there I get to choose a piece of music. I'm totally in love with this song at the moment, Go by Delilah. It is inspired by one of my old favourites, Ain't Nobody by Chaka Khan, which takes me right back to the eighties. But the spare way it's produced, and her stunning voice, send shivers down my spine. Gorgeous.
