I’m overjoyed that my debut novel The Maid’s Room will be published by Hodder & Stoughton in November this year.
The Maid’s Room is also being published by Penguin in Spain, Mondadori in Italy, Gyldendal in Norway and Rosinante in Denmark.
In addition to this, Hodder & Stoughton has commissioned me to write a second book.
I’m feeling so many things at the moment – excitement, relief (it’s been a long road) and such gratitude to the many people who have helped me get to this place – the domestic helpers in Singapore who shared their stories with me, the wonderful editor who put her heart and soul into getting my book back on track, my formidable literary agent Rowan Lawton, and to Kate Howard, publisher at Hodder & Stoughton, as well as the numerous friends who’ve mopped up my tears along the way.
More from me soon.
Congratulations! I look forward to reading The Maid’s Room in November and hope you’ll still have time to write your blog – as well as Book Number 2.
