There must be a part of my brain that simply refuses to believe that my book has arrived in the world. From selling out at the launch (this never happens apparently, bookshop No Alibis were surprised and delighted) to struggling to see it in Waterstones. Is it here? Why yes, yes it is. And it’s so beautiful.
What Just Happened?
On Stage!
Well it’s been quite a time. The month of May has left my mind tired and my heart full. To see my book out in the world continues to be amazing and surreal, and the love from readers and supporters just keeps coming. I’m truly grateful.
First of all the celebrations when THE PROOF COPY arrived
Then the emotional handover of author copies to parents
Then came the launch party – the best night EVER. Pics will be here soon!
One Year is now out in the world and (in case it wasn’t obvious) I still can’t believe it. Thank you Gill Books for being talented and clever and pushing me to make this book shine. Thank you everyone for buying it, reading it, telling others about it and generally being wonderful. More soon but meantime I’m still doing publicity and resting in the knowledge that my book will find its way to anyone who needs it.
Fly little debut memoir, fly…
Happy New Year
It’s dark in January, but there’s light ahead, and light within. Revisiting this wonderful poem by John O’Donohue.
