Hugh Todd has lived in North London for over 25 years. He has had several stories published, including 1 in 300,000,000 which was shortlisted for the Winston Fletcher prize. He has enjoyed a 30-year career in advertising as an award-winning copywriter and creative director and is the co-founder of the Behind the Billboard podcast. He gets his ideas from daily walks with furry friend Poppy in his local park which is where his debut novel "It Happened in Clissold Park" is set.
My debut novel "It Happened in Clissold Park" is to be published 28th June 2024.
I will be hosting a talk at Stokey Newington Literary Festival - ‘The coolest literary festival of the summer’ – Authonomy, on 9th June at 2pm, talking about the inspiration behind the novel, which is set in my local park.
