Writings

His self-published 2012 e-books Love From Both Sides and Love And Sleepless Nights were both best-sellers. [1] [3] [4] Love From Both Sides, which he describes as "a shoddy and derivative load of nonsense for the hard of thinking," sold a quarter of a million copies in 2012. [5] [6]

Based on that book's success he signed up with Hodder and Stoughton. [5] [7] His books are currently published by Amazon Publishing's Lake Union imprint. [5] He has some self-published books still published by Notting Hill Press and is often referred to as a 'terrible’ author because of this. [8]

Spalding has written articles for the Writers' & Artists' Yearbook [9] and has held a writing masterclass for The Guardian . [10]
