Take a behind-the-scenes look at the stories currently taking shape on my desk in Emneth. Follow the drafts, check the latest writing progress, and discover what chaotic family adventures are coming next from Anastasia Paul.

The Shit Mums Club: Hormones, High School and Holy Shit
Book 2 of The Shit Mums Club series is currently underway. The twins are growing up, the hormones are kicking in, and unfortunately, we are talking about everyone. Alfie and Archie are navigating the madness of high school, Richard is still the long-suffering husband holding the family together with tea and patience, and Barnie the dog remains entirely committed to a life of crime, theft and general destruction. Meanwhile, Anastasia is battling hot flushes, brain fog, mood swings, forgotten words, forgotten reasons for walking into rooms, forgotten... actually, what was I saying? Oh yes. Menopause.
Current writing progress: First draft underway — approximately 65% complete. Sneak peek excerpts and manuscript chapters are being edited weekly.
