Spent yesterday writing & dictating my new book, Stolen Gold. I write longhand first and then dictate using voice memo. So the written word gets 2 immediate edits; in speaking outloud & correcting the copied transcript. You should smell this Choisya, orange blossom before summer!

I've written a book about a 14 year old boy - and though I hope 14 year olds will enjoy it, it's really for everybody. I wanted to write something purely funny, and I think I might love it more than anything I've ever written before. It's out in August. Cover by Jim Kay.
