Many congratulations to the wonderful Amy Nickell on the publication of Confessions of a Single Mum, which is out in hardback today from Headline!
When Amy Nickell left university, she managed to nab herself a real life paid job as a celebrity reporter in London town. She literally got paid to ask Robert Downey Junior out for Nando's, while living with her gay best friend, their Harry Styles cardboard cutout and their pet toad, Snoop Frog, and drank prosecco way before it was in fashion. Things were good, they were fun, they definitely weren't serious. However, that life took a very grown up, very serious detour when Amy found herself expecting the unexpected and pregnant age 24. Pregnant and without a boyfriend. And so her life took on an altogether new direction... Now it's time for Amy to debunk single mum myths, delve into the world of dating (nothing ruins sexy sofa snogging ambience like the watchful eye of Daddy Pig), and talk about going back to work just ten days after giving birth, lactating WAY too close to Simon Cowell, as well as answering the questions that come with having a family that is anything but nuclear. Amy's wonderfully frank, honest and hilarious story will inspire other parents to own their single status as well as anyone whose life has thrown them a curveball.Confessions of a Single Mum is the relatable glimpse behind-the-scenes of Single Mum-dom that you never knew you needed - whether you're a mum or whether you're an observer who just wants to know the truth...
