Although my first book was published in 2002, now is the first time I have had two books in print at the same time, Seven Nights and the Flamingo Hotel and Saltburn.
And I’m very proud of both, @beardedbadgerbooks.bsky.social @renardpress.com
Slap on back!

I've already got a copy, but I think you should have one too
And Flamingo is back. After being out of print for a few years Seven Nights at the Flamingo Hotel is available again.
And with some endorsements from some fab authors.
This ‘cult classic’ from the ‘PG Wodehouse of the flophouse’ 😊 can be bought in the link below.

Ok… this is a BIG DEAL.
Published back in 2020, Seven Nights at the Flamingo Hotel by the unsurpassable @drewgum.bsky.social was our first novel… and as a consequence of us going to into hibernation for a while, it’s sadly been out of print.
NOT ANY LONGER!!!! IT’S BACK!!!!

Off to Derby today to sign some Flamingo Hotels. When it came out in 2020 it was lockdown. The box of books was left on my doorstep, collected. Now I get to do it at Derby Book Festival.
