It’s
almost a cliché: for an author, the launch of a new book can be somewhat like
the birth of a child. (I know some people would argue against that comparison!)
Still, with joy and relief I can announce that my book of historical fiction has
been born and is now available to readers. (Perhaps I should say the e-book is available: the paperback will
be out in just a few more days.)
I’m
very satisfied with the final product. In length it’s a novella, although it
comprises three stories connected by recurring characters, setting and theme.
No, I won’t spoil it for you by giving away any more than that! Of course, I
have been banging on about various things related to it in a few posts to this
blog—magpies, national anthems, sacrifice of life and so on. But you can find
out much more for yourself if you just click here
The
version on sale there is for downloading to a Kindle, but you can also read it
on your computer. By the way, did you know that if you don’t have a Kindle
reader, you can get an app to allow you to read Kindle books on smartphones and
tablets? And it’s FREE! Just look there on the Amazon page for the links and
details.
I’ll
soon be announcing the publication of the paperback edition. And whatever
version you read, I look forward to hearing anything you have to say about Song of Australia.
Warmest congratulations on the launch of your new book Song of Australia! Wishing you every success with it.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Miriam. You yourself know what it's like for an author to see the fruit of their labour up there for sale at last. My best wishes for your books too!
