Hi Lucy, Thanks for getting back. I'm just recovering form the flu. Nihilation is getting close to being finished. Actually I was hoping to get it done by the end of this week but the flu may well have scuppered that plan. I sent it off to Becky at DA too but she declined. The weird thing was she wrote something on the letter about someone called Justine having liked it and I have no idea what that was about. I emailed back about that but she never got round to replying. Anyway, I'd love to know what you think of it. And good luck with your book too. Exciting times eh?
Hi Lucy. Yes, that was me. The book I brought along to that workshop has been put back into its place in the queue but I'm doing other stuff. Looks like DA were being on the level with you then, well done!

Hi Lucy,
Just realised how soon your launch is! Is everything on schedule? I hope it's all going well and that, however manic, you're enjoying it!
Hi Lucy,
Not sure if you can make it to this week's Write-In, Thursday 23rd Feb, but will be good to see you if so: from 11am, usual place.
Hi Lucy,
just wondering if you'll be able to make the SW Social - details on the group page!
