Nash to release book of short stories

Kate Nash has revealed that she is planning to release a book of short stories.

The singer told NME that the work of author Roald Dahl inspired her to write a children's story about a seven-foot transvestite.

She said: "I'm writing one about a 12 year-old boy called George, who meets a seven-foot cross-dresser called Roy. It's a concept about imagination and being whatever your dream is."

She added: "There's a lot of things I want to achieve creatively. I just like chucking things out and thinking, 'Whatever'. I'm not scared of falling flat on my face."
