Finding new authors is always exciting and fascinating. I feel very honoured to have personally met and interviewed talented Nillu Nasser who has just released new literary fiction All the Tomorrows which tells the story of newlyweds Jaya and Akash in Mumbai, India. The novel is about second chances, the weight of tradition and gender, and the line between happiness and selfishness. It will appeal to readers of literary fiction, those who like foreign travel and family sagas.

My Hero is a new book that has been conceived with the specific aim to improve children’s motivation and achievement.
This children’s book has been produced by researchers at the University of Portsmouth using innovative research to raise pupils’ motivation and achievement.
