Welcome
Welcome, finally, to my website. Here's info on me, my books and other writings, what I'm up to, and the inevitable deeply self-absorbed blog. Visit, graze, leave a comment, then go out into the sunshine and read.
Hard copy
Today, unexpectedly early, I had the day all author's wait for and wait for: the first copies of my next book came off the press.
The printers (mine are in China this time) send you the first two right away, so before anyone else, you get to hold a hard copy of the book you've worked on for so long. It's finished, it's done, it's in your hand. Imagination made real.
And mine looks great. One more time, it's called The Knife of Never Letting Go, comes out in the UK and Australia (and Ireland and New Zealand) on 5 May, and here's a bit of what the cover looks like (the sleeve is clear acetate with the red stuff printed on it). I'm soooo pleased with it. Walker have done a fantastic job.
And again, to have it in your hand. Any author who doesn't still get excited by it doesn't deserve to be writing.
