The fact that both publications are no longer on sale in a physical form is not at all linked to his work there. He has since gone onto publish twenty-six books, including, The Looked After Kid, But We All Shine On and Colour Me Father, his acclaimed trilogy inspired by his time spent growing up in care. Other works include landmark publications on The Beatles, Bowie and Oasis, and the footballer Robin Friday. He lives near Tottenham and dotes on his children.view less
