It’s received great reviews and I’ve had some lovely feedback from both mums and dads, for which I honestly thank you. For the last few months I’ve been slaving [...]

Good day to you, wizards and witches. Reading this article on the Guardian’s website about the importance of a book’s cover made me think about ‘Goodbye, Pert Breasts’.

If you reckon you could use a writer that can jabber on about all aspects of parenting and fatherhood in an interesting and [...]

I’m starting to put together some ideas for a sequel to ‘Goodbye, Pert Breasts’, and would like to address some of the main fears that you have (or have had) as a parent. What really freaked you out once your baby was born? Was it illness? Abduction? When your little one grew older, was it [...]
