After selling at auction in the UK and numerous foreign territories,&nbsp;<em>Do No Harm</em>&nbsp;was a bestseller in 2022. His latest book, <em>Conviction</em>, is out now.</p><p><br></p><p>We had a great chat with Jack about why he started writing at 17, and how he made such a success of self-publishing, selling over 100,000 books. That led to a move into trad publishing, but unfortunately that didn't go as planned. However, he was not dissuaded and tells us how a sharp focus on building the perfect sellable package for his next book, <em>Do No Harm</em>, led to it being picked up at auction and becoming a bestseller.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Links:</strong></p><p><a href=\"https://uk.bookshop.org/books?keywords=jack+jordan\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Buy Conviction and Jack's other books now</a></p><p><a href=\"https://twitter.com/JackJordanBooks\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Follow Jack on Twitter</a></p><p><br></p><p>Out now - a new video podcast from Page One featuring all the latest writing news - Page One Extra!
