Cowes writer and artist, Fran Heath, has launched her debut novel today.
Pencil Lead is the coming-of-age story of a 
young man who finds life isn’t turning out as expected.
Fran tells OnTheWight,
“The story is about having expectations that don’t match up to real life.
“Lyle thought everything would fall into place after university, instead, he finds himself unemployed, living alone and writing in hidden places with the pencil he carries in his pocket.
“When his equally directionless ex-girlfriend comes back into his life, they distract themselves by visiting a series of escorts. But Lyle soon discovers he can’t use fantasy to avoid reality.”
