About me:
Are you really interested? It's getting cornier everytime I say it. I watched an interview on Richard & Judy where they referred to someone as a ‘nearly woman.’ I can’t remember who it was. Anyway, I identified with the label, it was me. It was my ‘now or never’ moment. I gave up my funding and my PhD place. A big risk. In September 2005 I enrolled on an MA in Creative Writing. I finished In Search of Adam in August 2006,I launched my website and a blog in that month. Three weeks later Clare Christian from The Friday Project stumbled on this blog. She requested my manuscript and then offered a publishing contract. In Search of Adam was released in hardback June 15th 2007 and in paperback February 2008. My novella Disraeli Avenue is available as a free download from February 2008 In brief. I appear to make life changing decisions based on passing comments made by Richard & Judy. visit my website

Scars Beneath The Skin *OUT NOW*

Scars Beneath Skin



Nov 24 2009 11:47 AM

Hi,

Thanks for the add!

My new novel, 'Scars Beneath The Skin' is out now, available on Amazon and all other usual outlets.

Inspired by the author's experience in the 1996 Manchester IRA bomb, it's a dark urban story about the traumatised victim of a terrorist outrage (Karl Dresner, an East Berliner) and a fiery Italian woman, Lucia Cavallieri, who wants to turn his life around.
 
More info at www.ajduggan.co.uk including excerpts and a BBC radio interview.
Latest news is that the publisher, Flambard Press, is putting the novel forward for the Costa Book Awards and the Le Prince Maurice Prize

Cheers,
Andy

Caroline,

I've enjoyed reading your witty, self-effacing, transparent and luminous blog. How do you do that?

Best wishes on your free novella download. I did repost that bulletin for you.

Wishing you every success,
Esmaa

heey!
It's been an absolute surprise for me seeing that you have myspace and that you've added me because I'm reading your book, in search of Adam. I bought it in Bristol this summer because I was there studying English.
:)
so, how are you?

Nice to meet you, miss Caroline Smailes
