Women's fiction favourite Cathy Bramley has a brand-spankin' new novel out today, The Plumberry School of Comfort Food. I recently had the chance to chat to her about the new book, why she owes Jenny Colgan a pint, the differences between her self-publishing and traditional publishing journeys, and the age-old dilemma: Victoria sandwich or lemon drizzle cake? I'm very excited to say that the interview is a part of the blog tour for the novel, with each stop revealing the answer to one of the questions. I'm kicking off the tour today with the first question.
