this blog isn't called chatterbox for nothing

Hello, it is two weeks until you (or anyone) can buy Tony Hogan from all good book shops….are you guys enjoying my infernal counting-down as much as I am?…Ok, moving on.

So, over the last few days I did three interviews and a photo shoot. I was nervous (oh so inevitably) about the first one. We met at the St Pancras International Hotel and I was sure I was going to be stopped from entering though I’d used the iron that morning and everything. Amazingly, they let me in. Even more amazingly I loved that first interview and then the two that followed on Monday. Actually, genuinely really enjoyed them.

I think I forgot that I wrote Tony Hogan because I had things I really wanted to say and have people listen and the interviewers had such interesting, thoughtful questions about the book and my reasons for writing it that it’s been a pleasure. I’ve been so grateful for the whole experience - not just the publicity part which is obviously grand and dandy - but for just getting to have a chat with people who’ve read the book and were curious to know a bit more. 

Except for my Dallas-eque fright-wig for the photo shoot - a symptom of an impulse blow-dry, luckily the photographer put me right at ease to the extent he couldn’t get a ‘serious’ shot out of me - it’s all been a blast so far.  

So that was the week that was. Don’t worry, I’ll be blowing up all your social media dashboards with links as soon as they’re up and in the meantime here are some Tony Hogan bookmark and postcards porn from me to you. Enjoy.
