This post was first published at iainbroome.com on 31 July 2012, which was the day before my debut novel, A is for Angelica, was published. I played my first competitive, 11-a-side football match when I was seven years old. It was on a full-size pitch and my team needed special permission from the league, because the minimum age was eight. The age limit was there for my safety, but I didn’t care because I was big and tall and really good at football.
