    'page turning tension and beautiful writing' - Katie Fforde. 'A superior and moving novel that explores a thought provoking subject with a delicate touch. A remarkable debut.' - Margaret Graham My second novel 'The Dawning' is due out January 2010!! (Weathervane Press)

    Hi,

    Thanks for the add!

    Managed to corral about 50 people for my book launch in June - being a member of a couple of writing groups helped there.

    Now it's very much a slog to find readers - MySpace and Facebook are proving v. useful for that.

    All the best,
    Andy

    hey

    it's been about 2 months... was interesting to read the blog about you tentatively waiting for your husband's response!

    Mark's album launch night was.... insanely GREAT!!!!!!! It was on 09/09/09 at Matt & Phred's in Mancunia... Sarah Winton on sky-scraping, warbling vocals... Vicky Flint on trumpet with great energy and stage presence, and Chris Bowden (from Herbaliser and 4Hero fame) on sax, bending his leg in true jazz style... It was all very experimental, and fresh and cool...!!

    hope all's well... still looking for work....

    would be great to hear from you!
