Please forgive my indulgence but today I posted a 104,500+ word novel to a publisher.

It has music as a thread but the main issues within are based on the relationships built around a history of lies and deceit. However I have made the love interest hero a guitarist who we would all feel proud of. Well nearly. It will take up to 8 weeks to get the book ready for the general public to buy from Amazon and other online outlets.

Aw heck, I'm so envious! It's something I've been meaning to do for a long time, but never been quite able to get around to. Is this your first? Congratulations, and the best of luck with it.

Thank you. It's my first full length novel, though I have already started doing research for another one. I've been writing all sorts of stuff (rubbish mostly) for years. See link for blog for some fairly recent stuff.

That is brilliant, well done. Also one of my unfulfilled ambitions. Wish you all the best of luck.

The cover illustration and internal layouts are underway and I expect to see the formatted version within a fortnight. The anticipated cover price will be around £8.99 though that may be over estimated. It will only be available as a paperback. Stay tuned... ha ha... Hmm.
