Transcript
00:00 Hi there, I've just written my first ever novel. It's called The Island Swimmer and it's set here in beautiful Orkney.
00:07 It's all about love and loss and relationships and coming to terms with things in your past.
00:13 I really hope you like it. It's out in February. Do let me know what you think.
00:17 But it is called The Island Swimmer, so I'm going in.
