My first book!

Books glorious books. I've a flat bulging at the seams due to my love of them and now I'm going to have a book emblazoned with my own name on it. Back in November, I was approached by one of the commissioning editors at Wiley about writing for them. I'd already taken on the 3rd edition of their hugely successful 'iPad For The Older And Wiser' title and enjoyed the experience. This time, rather than being co-author, I'll be going it alone. 

I wasn't allowed to reveal the details of what I was writing when the project was first agreed. It was under wraps for a couple of reasons: it’s a new title for Wiley and they’re rightly proud (and a little bit nervous) about putting out something different. The second reason is that it’s a project with Tesco, for which it will be a first ever publication. Tesco is getting into books in a big way and is busy building its own digital bookstore, set for launch in spring 2014. This book, Hudl For Dummies, will be published around the same time.
