WINTER 2003 - ON THE SIDELINES
Nov 30th 2003
Nov 30th 2003
A brief dip into what happens behind the scenes and what our authors are doing to promote their books, with and without our assistance. what and where reviews appear and what might be happening in the future.
RO Author Timothy Pilgrim organised a very successful book signing in Kings Lynn, with newspaper coverage, on Saturday 29 November. Book sales were brisk and we are told by our author that it is currently being read by the B.B.C..
MELASMA, IS THIS THE CLEAR SOLUTION written by Vanessa Wild is appearing in an article in the March edition of Vogue, due on the news stands approximately 17th February.
RAINBOW HANDS has been favourably reviewed in the Morning Star on November 24th. Rabina Khan has every right to feel satisfied with the closing comment “You cannot put it down and I can’t wait for the sequel.” …. So wrote Gwyn Griffiths, which is surely what every author wants to hear.
JOURNEY INTO FREEDOM by Peter Hart appeared in an advert in the Jewish Chronicle (complete with I.S.B.N. number for efficient ordering) and was reviewed in the Intelligence Corps Journal, Rose and Laurel. Quote from the Bishop of Chichester "The book will be placed in the official library with the other records of Bishop Bell.", and from the Leo Baeck Institute "Thanks for your valuable autobiography which we shall list in our bibliography."
INNOCENT IN AFRICA also has five copies in the Archives of the Marija Museum, the only place of record of the history of Lesotho and its prehistoric past. Annette Willoughby ,its author, was requested by Professor David Ambrose M.B.E. (locally known as Mr. Dinosaur) to have her book placed there. She also proudly relates that King Letsie III has his own signed copy of her book.
AFRICA-GO-GO author Steen Marcussen now has two websites from which he has started marketing.
And finally ….. our editor is enjoying his Christmas break in the knowledge that things are pretty buoyant in the Print on Demand world and, even though a few gremlins sometimes gum up the works, mostly the right books land on the right mats, and the invoices are spelt correctly. He very much values your contact and support and is generally smiling these days when approaching the bank or coming back from the Post Office Box. (don’t mention rugby or you will be delayed by at least a half day’s work.)
Here he is, chatting me up in a French alleyway!!
"Parlez-vous Rugby?"
