As it has an in-house video production team, it is able to make use of digital video as a marketing tool for its authors; creating book trailers, news packages and mini-documentaries. The first title Candy Jar released, entitled Kangazang!,[4] was written by Terry Cooper. Part of a trilogy, the audiobook of Kangazang! is narrated by actor Colin Baker, who previously starred in Doctor Who.[5] Other authors published by Candy Jar Books include Eileen Younghusband and Michelle Briscombe. Younghusband is the author of One Woman's War, which was published in 2011.[6] The book tells the previously untold story of the work of the Filter Room in WW2, and the book is the first of its kind on the topic to be published.[7] Younghusband has since appeared on BBC Breakfast talking about her book.[8] A documentary was made about her life for ITV Wales and aired in November 2012.[9] Michelle Briscombe is the author of Silent Mountain. Other Candy Jar Book authors include Mark Brake, [https://www.markcarton.co.uk/ Mark Carton], Anthony Ormond, Griff Rowland and [https://www.suehamptonauthor.co.uk/ Sue Hampton].
