Have you written any other books that we should read next? He’s the alpha male in his group of male friends and popular with his female friends who all have a soft spot for him. He has a foul mouth and slightly overinflated opinion of himself (one of which is the delusion of an incredibly large member). At first meeting you’re not quite sure whether you like him or not but as you get to know him you can’t help but love the guy.

Mark Mutton is a salesman in his late twenties, he’s a good looking guy who considers himself to be quite the comedian. If you like Bridget Jones Diary/ The Hangover, you’ll love my book. That’s definitely a recurring scene in our nightmares! Complete this sentence for us: if you like _, you’ll love my book. Being trapped in a toilet for the opposite sex with chronic, voluminous diarrhoea is everyone’s nightmare and it features in the book in what has proven to be the most talked about chapter. There are many personal experiences that people will identify with such as the build up to the moment you lose your virginity and the whirlwind of emotions that follow once you’ve done the deed.

The book will appeal to readers of either gender who have experienced an attraction to someone. So what kind of men and women will The Break Up Recipe appeal to?

The first few females to read the book were curious to read something about romance from a straight man’s point of view and I have found their responses so far to be in my favour. It also allowed me to draw in male readers to the genre as the general feedback I’ve had from initially sceptical males has been very positive. Yes being a male in the heavily female populated romantic comedy area helps me bring a fresh perspective to the genre because I am writing primarily from a male angle so it offers an alternative take on relationships to the conventional. That’s a genre overwhelmingly dominated by female writers does being male help you bring a new perspective to it? It is a romantic comedy with a heavy emphasis on comedy. It was originally written for a male audience but females very quickly became the primary consumers, partly due to the subject matter and partly due to the naked photos of me which I used for the books main marketing material. I tried to write it in a way that anyone could identify with regardless of their relationship situation or gender. The aim of the book was to make people laugh. He takes the reader on a journey of his previous encounters with the opposite sex, some of which are hilarious, all of which are described with a crude cynicism that will have you laughing. The Break Up Recipe is about the unfortunately named Mark Mutton who gets jilted by his fiancee a month before they are due to wed.
