It’s so good to be able to report that Mum’s Way is now at no 7 in the Sunday Times non-fiction chart, and that it is already receiving its first great reviews. We also now have a dedicated facebook page, so if you fancy stopping by to say hi to Ian, let us know what you think or share your own experiences, we’d love to see you there. Ian’s also busy compiling a list of useful websites for anyone looking for help and support with any aspect of living with cancer or dealing with bereavement, so if you have anything to contribute it would be especially good to hear from you.

If so, you might want to head across to www.andrewlownie.co.uk for a fascinating insight into what it involves. Several of his stable of ghostwriters (though the collective noun for ghostwriters just has to be a haunting, doesn’t it?) wax lyrical about what it means for them – me included.

Talking of fascinating (well, in the hope of being so, at any rate), this seems a perfect moment to formally alert the world to the forthcoming TEDx talk I’m giving, at King’s College London on Saturday 13th April. More details soon but, in the meantime, go visit their facebook page in any case – the line-up really IS fascinating. As, of course, is TED.

So thrilled to see that after the family’s appearance on BBC Breakfast tis morning, Mum’s Way has climbed to number 8 in the Amazon Chart. Even better has been the incredible response to Ian’s story; as perhaps there would be. Cancer affects almost all of us, and Ian’s loss will strike a chord with many. If you’re up there watching, Angie, you would be so proud of your loved ones today – the kids were just adorable, even if the boys did look a touch bleary-eyed after their obscenely early start!

If you read my last post you’ll know how excited I am to report that Mum’s Way, Ian Millthorpe’s memoir about his late wife Angie, which I was thrilled to be able to ghost,  will be in the shops to buy on February 14th.
