Hello everyone, Thank you for checking out my author page. I’ve wanted to be an author since my mum, Penny Vincenzi, got her first book deal when I was 13. We’d spend hours walking and talking in our favourite place, The Gower Peninsula, about the worlds her characters inhabited and unpicking any plot dead ends she’d found herself in. I absolutely loved it - this is what I wanted to do! Fast forward 30 years and I’ve discovered it’s a great deal harder than my mother made it look! But still, here I am. After graduating I wrote scripts and had two episodes of BBC Doctors commissioned but didn’t like all the input from Script Editors and Producers. So, while I worked in various PA jobs I decided to go for it and just kept learning as much as I could until I sold my debut novel, The Girl in the Letter, which has sold nearly half a million copies worldwide and been translated into 17 languages! This was closely followed by The Missing Daughter and my new novel, The Midwifes Secret is out now in Kindle and Hardback - and in paperback in April this year. I would love to hear what you think via my website www.emilygunnis.com! I live in Sussex with my husband Steve and our two beautiful, crazy, girls, Grace and Eleanor. If you’d like to get in touch please also try me at Twitter @EmilyGunnis, Instagram @emilygunnis and Facebook @emilygunnisauthor. I love hearing from my readers and I’d love to know what you think of The Girl in the Letter and The Missing Daughter and The Midwife’s Secret, so please get in touch. Keep reading! Love Emily x
