Sleepless nights pay off with book deal for Webb

FOR author Sarah Webb, life is sweet and fulfilling. She has signed a two-book deal worth “a generous six-figure sum” with British publisher Macmillan and is expecting her second child in February. Fruitful times.

“My son Sam was a very bad sleeper. Every morning he awoke at 3am and stayed awake until 5am, and so I started writing then,” Sarah said.

Born soon after she finished her degree in English and the History of Art at Trinity College Dublin, Sam was to inspire Kids Can Cook.
