How It All Began .. Two summers ago I was in Birmingham visiting some libraries. At lunch I was chatting with a librarian who was training for the London Marathon to raise funds for a paralysed friend. As I left the restaurant, I knew that my next teen novel was going to be about how spinal cord injury affects both victims and those closest to them. Yes, it was as sudden as that. That’s the way inspiration strikes. It’s partly a magic thing, but also a moment of recognition – but when a novel wants you to write it, there’s generally a few good reasons.

OMG!!! I don't think words can describe this book. This is a book that you can laugh and cry at. I couldn't read it in a day because you have to kind of get your head around everything that's going on. My favourite extract was near the end, (Dannys' extract). This was my favourite because it sums up that they have all settled the whole 'Danny and Emma' thing. In my recent English lessons, we have been asked to do a presentation on our favourite book...not hard in geussing which one I picked there, your Paralysed book of course. I'd love to read more books like this, have you wrote any similar? If you have, can you email me please. Thank you. Beth
