(L-R) Sleepyhead author Mark Billingham, myself, Pariah & The Helper author David Jackson (back) and John Connolly creator of the Charlie Parker books
It’s World Book Night (UK) on 23rd April and I’m made up to have just received an email informing me I’ve been chosen as a giver this year!
This means I’ll be picking up 48 copies of Mark Billingham’s Tom Thorne classic Sleepyhead to distribute to friends, neighbours and anyone else I bump into who looks like they would enjoy a good read!
Excellent! Can I have one?
You most certainly can my dear
Sounds like great fun! And very appropriate, since that also happens to be the birthday of another famous writer, Shakespeare.
In 2011 it was held in March but moved to April this year to coincide with Shakespeare’s birthday which is a lovely idea, I think!
