Hi! My new book The Quiet at the End of the World is OUT NOW! SFX Magazine rated it five stars, and here's the blurb:
          	"How far would you go to save those you love?
          	
          	Lowrie and Shen are the youngest people on the planet after a virus caused global infertility. Closeted in a pocket of London and doted upon by a small, ageing community, the pair spend their days mudlarking and looking for treasure – until a secret is uncovered that threatens their entire existence.
          	
          	In the quiet at the end of the world, Lowrie and Shen must decide what they are willing to sacrifice to save the whole human race…"

Just got surprised when I discovered that you had an Wattpad profile; I just said "WHAAAAAT!?" and my friends said "WHAAAAAT!?"
          I just love "The Next Together" and I'll buy the sequel; of course, I'll buy your other books, too. I'm too excited to read it! If it is so good as The Next Together is, so I won't be wasting my money in crap (don't think that your work is crap though).
          Also, you used "Matthew" as one of the protagonists' name, and Matthew is my male favorite name (it will be my son's name, I won't listen to anybody) and I already loved the book due to that lol x)
          My message will be like this for now. When I read the other books, I'll come again!
          Continue with your great work! ;)

Hey! I love your books! I just finished reading The Quiet at the End of the World and wow! It's amazing, but seeing as I'm guessing it's set in the same alternate universe as all of your books or at least The Loneliest Girl, because of Loch & Ness, what happened to Romy? Would she still have been alive when the original virus happened or would the plot lines like,,, clash a little at that point? Because I'm not sure if I remember this correctly but wouldn't Romy have been sent into space after the infertility crisis or was the space ship sent a little before the crisis and it didn't affect her parents? Idk I'm just curious lol!

@LaurenJamesauthor I would love to read that story! Maybe it could be done the way the short story about Kate and Matt in Bletchley Park was done!

@mootycat I love this theory! They're not really set in the same world (you're right, the dates don't quite match up) but I think if you ignore timings, then it could all happen while Romy was in space, so she never learns what's going on back on Earth with the infertility. There's a story there!

I've just read The Quiet At The End Of The World and I must say that I absolutely loved it! I loved it so much that I finished it in 3 hours and ordered The Loneliest Girl In the Universe right after I finished it. You're an awesome writer, and thank you for this amazing book!

If you are voting in the @goodreads Choice Awards, The Loneliest Girl in the Universe is eligible for write-in votes! I would SUPER appreciate it if you would vote for me! (I take the choice awards v v seriously)

          I had to EDIT SOME METADATA to make sure that it could be voted for (because it came out in the UK first), so I might deserve a vote just for that, I think?
