[image error]One Summer has arrived! Today I saw it on the shelves of O'Mahony's bookshop on Limerick's O'Connell Street - and seeing your book for the first time in a bookshop is a thrill that never fades. I was as excited seeing it on the shelf today as I was eight years ago, when I walked into a bookshop and saw The Daisy Picker, my very first book, sitting there! I remember skulking around the shop for ages, waiting to see if anyone would choose it. I'm sure the staff thought I was a shoplifter, waiting for my chance to grab a few books and run!
In other news, I've made a start on a new book, and I'm about 50 pages in. Very different. Very, very different. That's all I'm saying right now! (I know, I'm such a tease.) But I also have an idea for a book that's quite similar in style to what's gone before, so hopefully I'll eventually manage to please all of the people all of the time!
