It’s been a fun afternoon collating the winners of the recent giveaway hosted by christinahardingerotica.blogspot.com ~ mine was the first such competition that Christina has hosted so I was very honoured.

Following incredible reviews of The Sebastian Trilogy and Sebastian’s Journal, Christina  gave away a signed copy of ‘Sebastian’s Journal’ and 5 signed bookmarks.  I actually sent 2 signed bookmarks to each winner as just one looked rather lonely in the envelope.

Not that I’m excited about the forthcoming Writers Conference in NYC but I can tell you precisely the days/hours/minutes until I step on the plane at Heathrow, London!

I’m now furiously researching the agents in attendance for the Pitch Slam.  With just 90 seconds to entice the agent to request my manuscripts I’m in stalker mode! [Not literally, I should add!]  There is a wealth of literary talent and experience wrapped up in a neat bundle of 54 agents ~ rather like Christmas morning finding 54 gifts under the tree ~ oh to be able to keep one.  Just one special agent with whom I can form a great working relationship.  I’d even forgo the gift wrap!

Like a woman possessed, I signed myself up to attend as many seminars as I possibly could.  My itinerary doesn’t leave me time to eat or even breathe but I simply can’t wait for every precious second of the entire 3 days.  I did however leave myself crucial retail therapy time before my flight home 😉

I’m thrilled to have launched a brand new edition of all three books in The Sebastian Trilogy!  Not only does each book have a newly designed cover, but the printed book size has changed too.  At 5 x 8″ it’s small enough to tuck in your handbag/purse/beach bag, but don’t worry, none of the story has been lost – it packs the same punch as before but has been tweaked and enhanced!

I hope you’ll agree that the 2nd edition rocks!

Cover Reveal ~ The Sebastian Trilogy

I’m delighted to reveal the new covers for The Sebatian Trilogy!  It’s been tremendous fun working with the talented designer/illustrator Sam Wall at http://www.samwall.com  who interpreted my concept with her own stamp of creativity and imagination.
