Paul Young (not the singer) will be signing copies of his new book “Escape On Yr Wyddfa” at Hailsham Lions Book Shop on 1 June. In conjunction with the Hailsham-based internet radio station Radio Illumini, the event will commence at 12 noon. Building on the success of his Cornwall set “The Island Mysteries” trilogy, Paul’s new story takes readers into the mountainous peaks of North Wales to reveal the truth behind a young couple’s relationship which will never be the same again. Paul was born and raised in East Sussex, where he still lives with his wife Nichola and two children, Isabel and Jack and quotes Richard Osman’s “Thursday Murder Club” and Dan Brown’s “The Da Vinci Code” as inspiration for his fiction writing. Writing is a new adventure for Paul, having been a software engineer for most of his working life. He also runs his successful Animazing, a Community Interest Company, which inspires young people to be creative through the story of classic children’s television production. Paul is a member of the Hailsham Festival Committee and will be presenting Animazing In Lights in the town centre during this year’s Festival, using over 2,000 computer controlled lights for a free outdoor music and light show. This is the third joint venture between the Lions Club and Martina Mercer’s Radio Illumini, following successful signings by Brian Oxley and John Buss.
