Anyway, Are You With Me was inspired by my own visit to my very first music festival back in July - one of THE biggest electronic dance music festivals in the world: Tomorrowland. And quite a few of my own experiences at that truly magical festival have been written into this story, but there'll be more about that in the coming weeks. Watch this space... π
OK. Check out Are You With Me's book blurb below, and all the details you need to know about its release date, and pre-order info...

Five
people.
Five
stories.
One
festival…
After
quitting his job, Markus arrives at Ethergy – one of Europe’s biggest
electronic dance music festivals – with the realization that he’s come to a bit
of a crossroads in his life. But he’s determined not to let reality get in the
way of the weekend, that can wait until he gets back home, to Iceland. And after
striking up a friendship with Sonny – the English girl who’s pitched her tent
next to his – he begins to believe that this year’s Ethergy just might be the
best one yet. He feels an instant connection with Sonny. She’s beautiful, but
guarded, and he wants to get to know her more but she keeps pushing him away at
every turn. Has he got time to make her feel that connection, too? Could they
be more than just festival friends…?
Sonny
has come to Ethergy – her first ever festival – alone. She wants to mark the
beginning of the rest of her life, after escaping a controlling relationship, and
despite feeling instantly comfortable in Markus’ company, it isn’t long before
she’s putting those barriers back up that she thought she’d finally torn down. And
she begins to wonder if she’ll ever really be free. But with the help of
Markus, a new friend called Winter, and the magic of the festival, maybe she
can be. Maybe…
Dutch
DJ and producer Arne Vos has played Ethergy every year since the festival began.
And this year he’s celebrating twenty-five years in the business by playing an
epic eight-hour set on the final night of the festival. He should be having the
time of his life, but what the outside world doesn’t know – doesn’t see – is
that he’s struggling with the kind of self-doubt that’s caused him to suddenly
start questioning everything from his career to his personal life.
He’s
been in a relationship with Dutch-Belgian Techno/House DJ Elia Ida for a few
years now. A rising star in the world of electronic dance music, Elia’s had to
deal with people claiming she’s only with Arne because of who he is and what he
can do for her, but they both know the truth. She doesn’t need Arne. It’s him
who needs her, and that’s something Arne has trouble dealing with. That,
and a past relationship Elia had with fellow DJ Magnus Jennsen, a.k.a. Magma.
It got in the way, for a while, and it almost destroyed them all, but they got
through it. Or maybe not, in Arne’s case. And with Magnus also playing Ethergy,
and Elia still insisting he’ll always be her friend, can Arne continue to
accept that? Or fight it. This year’s Ethergy is going to be a very different
one for Arne, that’s for sure. In a way he can’t even begin to imagine…
For
German couple Johan and Heidi, Ethergy is a very special place. They met there,
five years ago. And they’ve been coming back as a couple ever since. But this
year, Johan has something very special planned. He’s got it all mapped out in
his head, the perfect moment, and Heidi’s going to love it. Isn’t she…?
Heid
has an inkling that Johan has a surprise planned for this year’s Ethergy, after
all, they have a lot to celebrate. Johan’s promotion. Moving in together. Their
future, it’s an exciting one, and Heidi couldn’t be happier. Until she receives
a phone call that turns everything they both thought they wanted upside down, in
a heartbeat. And they only have the weekend to work it all out…
Can
a festival really change your life?
For
Markus, Sonny, Arne, Heidi and Johan, yes. It can. It did.
It
changed theirs…
