Why won't they interview me

In the first week my book "Someone to Watch Over me" went straight to number 7 on the Sunday Times Bestsellers list for non fiction paperbacks.
Week two and three it was at number 5.
This week it has gone to number 4
All of this has been done with two radio interviews, one of which was on REM.FM and one newspaper interview.
There was also a piece in the Asda magazine and a two week poster campaign across the UK.
I felt that once my book entered the top ten bestsellers that the media (be that magazines or newspapers) would then want to do interviews because this was, and is, a subject that effects so many people, in so many ways.
The reason I believe that the media don't want interviews now is because of saturation.
There are so many "Misery Memories" out there and when they first started coming out everyone wanted to do an article. But now, it would seem, they think they are a "BIT DEPRESSING".
A case of, been there, done that, read the book.....................
How many times do we hear they are a bit depressing when it comes to war stories, murder mysteries etc............we don't, and all of these things are real life too.
My book was written for everyone, not just for survivors but to help others understand the depth of pain that abuse and rape causes and how this can affect more than just the survivor.
It is a brutally honest book and I make no excuses or apologise for that, abuse and rape do not come with frills.
At this very moment we have a little girl in the headlines who has been abducted, Her future at the moment is unknown........... Lets hope that this situation has a happy ending, but if the worst were to happen would the media also class this as depressing.
1 in 3 to 1 in 4 girls and 1 in 7 boys will be abused in their life time, that is depressing, but it won't go away, it's happening now and it will sadly never go out of fashion.
This is why I have written my book, to reach out to everyone so they have a greater level of understanding. It is only with this awareness we can ever hope to change our laws and protect the innocent.
Please go out and buy "Someone To Watch Over me" get everyone you know to buy it and lets prove the media wrong!

Someone to Watch Over Me No.5 in the book charts

I've just heard that my book, Someone to Watch Over Me, is going to be at no.5 in the bestseller list again this week! I couldn't believe it when it went in at no.8 the week it was published and up to no.5 last week. I have lived with my story for so long, it is strange to think that thousands of people are out there buying my book and reading about my life. If you've read it please let me know what you think.
