This novel is the bravest piece of writing I've had the privilege of being involved with. @stewfoster1 has written a sublime examination of male friendship, and the generosity with which he shares experience is flooring. Urgent and necessary coming from @simonYAbooks in Feb.
COVER REVEAL... and its SOOO gorgeous Write what you know. So i did 'Pieces of Us" is very personal for me Its a story from my heart...my head.... for yours..... about the places where we all ache and laugh in between. Huge thanks to @simonYAbooks for backing me.
