A very professional interview, Julie. You said all you needed to clearly and concisely. It was so good of you to mention Simon as well. He will be thrilled when he hears it.

Re: The Mysterious Boy - Julie Robinson
I have been waiting for your book to become available on Book Depository so that I could buy it. Book Depository offers free shipping. But as of today, the book has not been available to purchase.

Re: The Mysterious Boy - Julie Robinson
Great interview, Julie - just listened to it on catch up - you did indeed sound very relaxed. Hope the book sells well!

Re: The Mysterious Boy - Julie Robinson
Thanks, Nigel and Robert, as I said I'll listen later, I can't even remember what I said now.
Sixret I don't know what book depository is, but I'm sure that if it shows it, you'll be able to order it. I spoke to Sam in Marketing this morning, and he said that distribution can take a few days. But one can still order from, Waterstones, Smiths, Amazon UK and American Amazon etc.
I guess if I was a JK Rowling, then the distribution would have had it delivered even before it came off the press!

Re: The Mysterious Boy - Julie Robinson
The Mysterious Boy is going to be my bedtime reading tonight, Julie. I’m really looking forward to making a start on it.

Re: The Mysterious Boy - Julie Robinson
Thank's everyone, I hope you enjoy reading the book as much as I enjoyed writing it.
You do make me laugh, Pete.

I think Stephen might have something to say about that...pete9012S wrote:Yes Eddie, it looks like there will be a few of us taking Julie to bed tonight!

Re: The Mysterious Boy - Julie Robinson
That's odd, Courtenay, I posted your book off on Monday first class, as you paid me more than the cost. You should have got it on Tuesday. Would have been quicker for me to drive down to Kent myself?Courtenay wrote:
