Everything goes into this diary, week-by-week, but you'll also find it a source of great tips, resources, tools, podcast recommendations and so on.

2) My Thrillers are now on pre-release, I've received my notifications that the books have to be ready by 19th March even though they're released on 23rd March.
Don't get caught out by this, you can lose the option to use pre-releases for a year if you don't hit the correct deadline date.
