Hi all,

HO here! A few things to update you all on...

My PhD progresses with ever more force. This has been getting in the way of my writing until very recently (don't you like which way around that is!?) but I now have a short gap in which to focus on the book and nothing else. I'm nearly 40,000 words in, and now that the ideas are fully cemented in my brain, it's picking up the pace! I reckon I can get a first draft together by this time next month.

Not so good news. Sales have dropped lately. I don't know if all booksellers and publishers are experiencing this, or if it's just me, but Amazon is practically dead and B&N sales have dropped by half :( May be a seasonal glitch, may be the end of me! Time will tell.

I cannot help noticing that one of CoB's reviews has vanished from the US site - Amazon.com. There are only (or were) 4 reviews on there, so that loss has dropped my book down the rankings considerably. Not sure if the reviewer decided they didn't want their reviews on my books any more, so I'm a bit sad about that. I don't know if they bother reading this blog, but if they do, can they tell me what I diiiiid?

Thanks :)
