Book Signing - Celebrity Ray Quinn

They say it’s all about timing. Well, the time has come for me to stand back and take a look of my life so far - where I've been, what I've achieved, and where I want to go in the future.

I've been blessed with a full and colourful career so far, covering TV, theatre, dancing, singing and skating. Now 26, I intend to focus on my greatest passion - music. If I've learned anything so far, it’s that life doesn't wait for anyone; you have to take control of your own destiny.

This is the story of how I grew up in Liverpool, my acting and dancing days, and how I coped with the overwhelming demands of the X Factor and Dancing on Ice. Much of that story was ignored by the media: there’s a lot that people don’t know.

‘This Time Round’ is something of a cautionary tale. Maybe reading about my own highs and lows will enlighten some of you who want to become part of the entertainment industry
