Everybody's Doing It by Abigail Collins

Everybody's Doing It by Abigail Collins

Three years after the sudden and deeply traumatic end of her marriage Katherine Wheeler remains terminally single. On the eve of her 39th birthday she sets herself a challenge: within a year she will be pregnant and married. What could possibly go wrong? Cue a series of hilariously awful internet dates, from the handsome doctor with terrible breath, to a prematurely bald pop star, and the extremely well-endowed 'Anaconda Man'. Hapless actress Kat is supported in her quest by a superb cast of friends and family; gorgeous best pal Jojo, successful, same sex couple Bil and Ben, perennial alcoholic bachelor, Gropey Dave, her oversexed mother, her long-suffering father, her belligerent younger brother and glamorous yummy mummy cousin. Nothing quite goes as expected or hoped for as a shocking family secret, a brush with mortality, and the ever present spectre of working in the gig economy, threaten to turn Kat's dream into a living nightmare. A frank, funny, feel-good first novel about what it means to be a single woman trying to find a mate in the modern world.

Abigail Collins is a performer, director, teacher and writer. While she is no stranger to divorce, internet dating and heartbreak, her first novel is entirely fictitious. The feelings, however, are deeply personal and, she hopes, very real, thanks to endless hours of selfless, in-depth research. Single, childless and now very much on the other side of forty, Abigail has poured her heart and soul into a funny and frank depiction of the universal work-life issues facing modern women.
