The C Word by Lisa Lynch

In yesterday’s Journalert we spoke to Lisa Lynch about her work, her aspirations of being a florist and Marc Jacobs handbags. Today we thought we’d talk about Lisa’s new book, The C-Word, based on her sensational blog www.alrighttit.com about the “sheer bloody pain-in-the-arse inconvenience of getting breast cancer at 28″. The blog started as a way of keeping her friends and family up to speed and evolved in to a strategy of blogging her way through the cancer – it was a matter of coincidence that Lisa was also a hugely funny and talented writer and her following grew from there. Having attracted the attention of everyone from Stephen Fry to Heat magazine it wasn’t long before the book deal came a-knocking and frankly we’re very glad it did.
