On 17 August 2023, I received £75,000 representing the first of four instalments of a book advance from Pan Macmillan (a publishing firm of Cromwell Place, Hampshire International Business Park, Lime Tree Way, Basingstoke, Hampshire, RG24 8YJ). I estimate that work on the book will account for around 10-15 hours per week. From 11 August 2025 I have undertaken a number of promotional activities in relation to the publication of a book written by me. Travel and accommodation costs associated with these activities, which are between  £5,001 and £10,000, have been met by my publisher Pan Macmillan [Registered 10 September 2023, Amended interest 11 September 2025]
