I am very excited because the new proof copy of Heres and Nows has come back from the printer, and the book looks lovely.
For those who are interested in the trials and tribulations of a first-time publisher, it was necessary to get a second proof (at some expense) because of numerous errors in the first proof. Not the least of the errors was the omission of an entire poem, and there were many typographical mistakes (all mine).
If any of my readers is contemplating publishing a book, print out the whole thing from your computer and read it properly, and give it to others to read as well.
Anyway, with the help of two excellent proof readers who gave their time unstintingly, all is now as it should be.
I am especially happy to have got the photograph of David Henschel a little lighter in tone, which is a huge improvement.
Next stop is the Amazon listing. Watch this space.
