She has just finished her second 35-date national live tour, and there is a West End stage play based on all four Why Mummy books currently in development. Since publication of her first book HarperCollins says Sims has sold more than one million books across all formats and in 16 languages so far. She published her first standalone novel The Saturday Night Sauvignon Sisterhood in May this year, which was also a Sunday Times bestseller. Sims’ first book, Why Mummy Drinks, spent more than six months in the Sunday Times bestsellers top 10. The second book will publish in summer 2024 with the title to be confirmed. The first title will be Why Mummy Drinks at Christmas, which will publish in autumn 2023 and will follow Ellen and the Russell family over a series of Christmases past and present. This two-book deal will see the return of Ellen, Simon, Peter and Jane as the family saga continues. Katya Shipster, publishing director, acquired world all language rights from Paul Baker at Headway Talent. HarperNonFiction has snared two more in the Why Mummy series of books from Gill Sims.
