Tony Sullivan

I was born in Liverpool and found the dole very helpful while writing my first novels; I also worked in various of jobs before going to Liverpool University.

I became an English teacher but continued to write books, and had three of my novels accepted by the publisher Andre Deutsch Ltd. The first was short-listed for the Whitbread First Novel Award. All three books received excellent reviews.

I have a number of unpublished novels that will be issued as ebooks throughout 2012. I now live with my wife and laptop in rural Lancashire.

My newly published ebook, Mad Hannah Rafferty was short-listed for the MIND Book of the Year when first published in print.

I have also had some excellent reviews for my print books which will be published as ebooks in 2012.

Here's a few review snippets:
