Not far off now!

It's hard to believe that it's only 18 days to the official launch party on 31st July.

I've done 2 radio interviews and in the process of doing another 2 for online publications.

Listen to one of the interviews below with Donna Parkinson, who is also launching her fourth poetic collection called 'The Urban Time Bomb' at our joint book launch event on July 31st.

When I really think about it, it's really quite daunting... but I'm looking forward to it.

Please enjoy the interview and take a moment to let me know what you thought.

Angee

Today my books arrived!

It's that strange funny feeling when you finally hold your bound books in your hands for the first time. No more loose leave drafts, no more printed copies with all your scribbles and corrections over them.

This is it... this is the moment you have sweat more blood and tears and suffered endless sleepless nights for.

Your books finally published and ready for consumption. You as a writer now become the reader and I guess we then become the most critical of them all.

With my first book Inspired, (back in 2008) I had to drive almost two hours to pick them up. This time, my second and third books were delivered straight to my door.

However, I think the feeling is still the same though... I cradled them gently like a newborn babe, then I thrust them up into the air like a champion winning a race, I thanked God for blessing me and then did a little dance singing,

'My books! My books! My books are HERE at last!'

Time to party on Angee-Licious style! (after sorting out a few reviews)

Roll on the official launch date 31st July @ Masters.
