Gozo Is the Grass Greener Scoops Top Prize in Autobiography/Biography Section in Paris

I am absolutely thrilled to announce that my book Gozo Is the Grass Greener? Has WON the top spot in the autobiography/biography section of the 2016 Paris Book Festival.

The book's win in Paris follows on from its success in London

Already the winner of an Honorable Mention at the 2015 London Book Festival, the book tells the story of my husband Steve and I, as we left the UK in 2010 to go and live on the beautiful island of Gozo in Malta.

Filled with anecdotes, both humorous and sad, the book offers an inside glimpse of life on this small and increasingly popular island.

Thanks must go to Faraxa Publishing for publishing the work, and to Neil Whittaker for his photographs which appear in the book. Also a special mention to illustrator, Michael Martin who so brilliantly penned the front cover. Michael is the current illustrator of the Daily Mail’s much loved Fred Basset.

Thanks to everyone who supported me in downloading or buying the book and offering a steady stream of encouragement.

Also at the same Festival, my debut book about social work, Known to Social Services won an Honorable Mention in the general non-fiction section.

A winner in London and an Honorable Mention in Paris

We hope to attend the winners dinner in Paris in June – good thing we live in France now J
