Linda Green: Things I Wish I'd Known

She then embarked on a successful career in regional journalism. Although now on her third book, Things I Wish I'd Known, it hasn't always been plain sailing.

Here she chats to the Yorkshire Post's Nick Ahad about the teenage football passions that fuled her latest book, the scores of rejections for her first novel and how hard work and perseverance finally won her that big break.

At the end of the interview Linda also reads an extract from Things I Wish I'd Known.
