Hi! I promised everyone an exclusive, deleted scene from Before I Go to Sleep. Here it is… (By the way, if you’ve recently signed up, you’ll have received this as part of your ‘welcome’ email. Apologies for the repetition!) I first sent Before I Go to Sleep to my agent in December 2009, having worked on it throughout that year. (Except back then Clare wasn’t MY agent, but AN agent, and the book wasn’t called that – it was called The Seahorse Diaries). Between then and publication in April 2011 the book underwent several substantial edits, mostly to tidy up the plot and bring the book into sharper focus. The end result was a far better book, but along the way it lost several substantial scenes and even a character or two. I thought it might be interesting to share one of these scenes with you, and I’ve pasted it below.
