Happy Publication Day to @JBaileyWrites's THE MEANING OF LIFE: Letters from Extraordinary People and their Answer to Life's Biggest Question 📚

Over 100 extraordinary people. One profound question. Countless life-affirming answers.

@Bertrom Yes, it's such a lovely answer from Susan.

In case you missed it, The Guardian published an extract from my new book: https://t.co/zKLjxSxLF8

@philosophybites @TheNewEuropean Thanks so much, I really appreciate your support!

[James Bailey @JBaileyWrites]

@Evolutionistrue Thanks so much for sharing! Although worth pointing out that the article contains just 15 of the 100+ answers in the book, and a number of contributors do discuss their religion.

Robinson (@LittleBrownUK) has signed The Meaning of Life, the first work of non-fiction by novelist @jbaileywrites

Rye Lane? We recommend #TheFlipSide by @jbaileywrites for the same sense of spontaneity and adventure that follows a break-up. (5/8)

[James Bailey @JBaileyWrites]

@derwenfawr Thank you very much Caroline! I'm so pleased to hear you enjoyed it!

[James Bailey @JBaileyWrites]

@MiriamLSmith3 @MichaelJBooks @kalliereads Thank you Miriam for such a wonderful review. I'm really glad it was able to provide comfort to you at a difficult time

[Anthony Horowitz @AnthonyHorowitz]

@JBaileyWrites The most prescient page I ever wrote.

[James Bailey @JBaileyWrites]

@AnthonyHorowitz Thank you so much, Anthony! Really means a lot. Truly those words have stuck with me all this time. I did put a signed copy in the post (via Curtis Brown) so hopefully it finds its way to you at some point, and you enjoy it as much as you liked my Year 8 story!!

[James Bailey @JBaileyWrites]

Looking for a short, heart-warming, publishing story (featuring a famous author) to break up your day?

Well you're in the right place...

📖A thread📖

[James Bailey @JBaileyWrites]

Thank you so much @AnthonyHorowitz for the inspiration and encouragement.

Now I just need to dig out that old story I wrote, and see how bad it truly was!

[James Bailey @JBaileyWrites]

And as I signed copies in Bridport today it seemed highly serendipitous that my book was on a table alongside @AnthonyHorowitz's latest novel.
