The aforementioned Windsor Festival event How I Got My Book Published went really well. There was a good turnout and everyone seemed very happy with how it went. Lots of audience members were taking notes, which was a good sign. I sold and signed plenty of copies of my books afterwards – always nice! The local newspaper has written a brief review of the event here.
In other news, Waterstones in Windsor has put up a special ‘local author’ shelf with my recommendations on it. Amazingly, I didn’t recommend a single Amis book, nor any of my own! Instead, I chose: The Case For Israel by Alan Dershowitz, A Man In Full by Tom Wolfe, Sweet by Julie Burchill and It’s Not About The Bike by Lance Armstrong.
Finally, The Australian newspaper has published an article off the back of Not In My Name.
