Jeni has been inundated with flowers, gifts, messages - yes it’s a major birthday. You have to guess which one. She now knows she’s loved, that’s for sure.
Some of her writing pals had a small celebration at a lovely Chinese restaurant with gifts, good food, and writing news like Sue Murrary’s new BIG DRAMAS - another book of wonderful plays published by Pan MacMillan; Jeni’s new comedy series; my debut into the USA market with ’I AM JACK’ by Tricycle imprint RandomHouse.
