Just got back from showing this new book to potential customers.....always a nervy start and with some trepidation I wizzed around the Cotswolds, from Bath to Cheltenham, and up the Fosse Way, and down again, then over to Oxford and to home via Swindon. I visited small book stores, the Waterstones stores and the three Waitrose, plus a variety of independents. The overall reaction was very positive. Some wanted a hardcover but most thought that idea, old hat...the stiff paperback cover allows for you to swish through the pages.....I enjoyed the unknown, the adventure and just being out there to show it off. Very exciting....next week it's London. Fingers crossed.
I am also gathering my images of England and Wales scenes for the next book. Its re-awakening old times, memories....thinking back to the Yorkshire Dales waterfalls and the early light in the Hole of Horcum. Magical times. And, further south the castles of Kent; Bodiam, Leeds.. just wait and you'll be surprised at the beauty of olde England. Herewith a taster....
