The showbiz life of an author...
A sudden burst of publicity has marked the launch of my new book Can't Let Go - with newspapers and various other media taking more of an interest than usual, thanks to a fascinating biographical press release that my publicist and I concocted.
On launch day itself I was in Southampton with John Harvey and Peter James to talk to the assembled throng (well, thirty people) about crimewriting and to read bits from our books. The following day I was holed up in a little BBC room in central London talking to a variety of disembodied voices from BBC local radio stations across the nation. Then last week I returned to Lincoln, where I lived for about ten years, to do a reading/signing at Waterstone's.
Tomorrow I am heading for a TV studio somewhere in London to record an interview for some satellite TV channel that I've never heard of, that is connected with Borders Bookshop. And then the following week I head for Dursley in Gloucestershire to do a reading/talk in a library.

Re: second picture: you own Waterstone's.
And I want to own that green jacket.
Congrats Jane, well done!
Fancy jacket out of mothballs?
Nice touch.
