I am the author of eight books, three for adults and five picture books. My two novels are ‘Making News’ (Pier 9, 2010) and Players (Text, 2005), which are both comic novels about celebrity and media. Making News has received a near clean sheet of positive reviews:

"Making News should come with a warning that it shouldn't be read on public transport... unless you are happy for people to stare at you like a crazy person while you snort with laughter. I could not have loved it more. Without doubt my favourite Australian novel of the year." - Wil Anderson

"As a novel, it hangs coherently and builds with purpose – avoiding the traps sometimes encountered when funny people try the serious business of writing a proper book...Wilson is a novelist who just happens to be hilarious." - The Age

"Wilson has been compared to Ben Elton but to take such a comparison is to do him a The media love Making News by Tony Wilson disservice...Really he is closer to Nick Hornby...Making News is an easy read, full of laughs and hard to put down.’ - The Sydney Morning Herald

"It's difficult to imagine who wouldn't enjoy this snappily written yarn. It's a truly non-guilty pleasure.’ - The West Australian ‘Making News is funny and cynical. Comparisons with Ben Elton and Carl Hiaasen spring to mind." - South Coast Register

"A celebrity story is great, and the more sensational the better. The story behind the front pages is a bit dark, but lots of fun." - Woman's Day
