On The Shelf

Talk about being in good company!  Sometimes with the admiration for the works of other authors you sometimes forget you are one too! Here my book sits among some notable ‘diet’ reads – Cook Right for Your Type, The Dukan Diet as well as notable ‘diet and exercise’ gurus like Michelle Bridges, Sandra Cabot and Dr Pierre Dukan. I sometimes say that writing my book was the equivalent to ‘coming out’ as gay – it has made a very private part of my life and my history very public indeed – there for anyone to read at any time they want. And whilst it’s confronting at times to know others know more about you than you’d sometimes like, it’s also a huge source of satisfaction knowing that my story may be able to really help some of those who read it. And although I would really prefer my book to be in the Health section rather than Diet, I’m still glad it’s out there loud and proud.
