My new novel THE HYENA is available to pre-order: https://www.starsandsabers.com/books/the-hyena/
And here's my first ever UNBOXING VIDEO! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ygm1SVXQ91g
“I couldn’t put this book down. The Hyena has an urgency to its telling, taking hold of you and carrying you along with it. There’s a constant, tantalising sense of almost, as Deborah Parkinson finds herself drawn into the orbit of various glittering, bohemiam figures from art history. Her story is one with a twist in its tail that is both unexpected and entirely earned.”
— Anne Corlett, author of The Theatre of Glass and Shadows and Witchwater
“The Hyena takes us on a surreal journey through questions of identity and reality and the nature of art and creativity.”
— Ruth Frances Long, author of The Feral Gods trilogy
“A breathless, engrossing and often very funny art-world picaresque that takes so many unpredictable turns – the last few being the most surprising of all.”
— Eddie Robson, author of Painting With A Dead God’s Blood
“Deborah is a delightfully quirky character, full of mordant whimsy and burning wit.”
— J.L. Worrad, author of Pennyblade and The Keep Within

I am an author, movie writer, television writer and radio broadcaster. As well as writing on Veep, The Thick of It and Harry Hill's TV Burp, I also wrote the critically-acclaimed TV drama Snodgrass, the romantic comedy movie Book Of Love, and the award-winning Whatever Happened To Baby Jane Austen?, a Radio 4 sitcom for French and Saunders.

Here are some of the other books I've written.
Sparks is an e-novel, described as "excellent" by Neil Gaiman.
The Mule is a strange comic novel which Jonathan Coe called "an offbeat and surprising comedy thriller".
And there are my two writing handbooks, How To Write Everything and How

And there are my two writing handbooks, How To Write Everything and How To Be A Writer. They're very useful.
