THE AUTHOR
Paul Chatwyn-Ros
I was told it was professional to have your own website if you were ever going to publish a book. Whilst I would never wish to be accused of being professional, I also don't want to break the rules. So here we are.
My debut novel will be published by the end of 2026. This is a promise I made to someone very close to me which I intend to fulfil. Not least because they want me to stop banging on about the thing I've been writing for five years now.
I am a member of the Sutton Writers group. This group has been invaluable in helping put my debut work together. They have also said that it is "bonkers" and "I don't know what any of the references are". So make of that what you will.
I'm highly influenced by comedy, whether that be written, TV, film or stand-up. Whether that translates to my writing being funny is another thing...

A Novel. Allegedly.

Zoo Parts Unknown Signed Paperback
£9.99
A comedic novel about one giraffe's attempt to get through a night of bizarre challenges. With pop culture references, attempted jokes and sweary words aplenty.
ABOUT THE BOOK
A story delving into that age-old struggle: giraffe vs idiot.
Earl has a lazy life at Morecambe zoo. Food delivered, shelter provided, and never-ending amounts of TV on-tap. But one idiot will upend his comfy life, making him play a series of unoriginal and badly-designed challenges in a quest to rescue his zoo pals and make himself famous.
And why? Well, reasons. Decades of reasons.
"It's so unusual and original... there's a strong narrative pull with an intriguing backstory that keeps you wondering."

PRAISE
I don't think I've ever laughed so much at a book.

A very unusual book in a good way. It has a definite personality.
