My YA novel OTOLI has been chosen as the stimulus for a new writing competition created by Movellas. They are creating a high profile media campaign for the competition which will is backed by the charity Bullying UK, Pneuma Springs, Childline and others so please share this link with your friends, family and schools in any way you can via social media. The competition is open today (16th May) until 8th July 2012 so you have plenty of time to get your thinking caps on. Together we can all help combat the awful thing that bullying really is, in all its forms. There are super prizes to be won and runners up will receive a signed copy of the OTOLI paperback. Enter the competition and keep an eye out for updates on the Movellas web page here: 'Both Sides Of The Story' - Movellas writing competition

For all Kindle lovers out there! My publisher has reduced the Amazon Kindle price for my books to £1.53 / $2.36. You can read samples and reviews before you try and buy too. It's at least worth a peek isn't it?
