So now it’s happening. Two days to go. Tomorrow I travel to London to sign books at Goldsboro collector’s editions on Wednesday. Leave in the morning, stay overnight, sign in the afternoon, then stay over again for the long journey home. Thirteen hours travel time. Never thought this book would actually happen. Now it’s here I still can’t believe it.

I was asked to talk on BBC R4’s Front Row and even then it seemed like a thing that shouldn’t be happening. I’m hoping that the book is accepted in the spirit it was written. It’s been reviewed well so far which is hopeful, but it’s really up to the public, and JAWS fans, to treat it well.

Wish me luck!
