MUSICAL BOOK LAUNCH

Last Thursday I had the first musical  book launch Waterstones has ever had. I was launching my psychological thriller “The Day Of The Swans.” A musical book launch is a very unusual event, but the manager of Waterstones in Rose Lane, Canterbury discovered that I was a member of the Maridadi Community Choir and asked me if some of them would come and sing at the event and some of them did! It was a wonderful feeling for me as I’ve only been a member of the choir for six months and yet they gave up their precious time to sing at my event which made it incredibly special for me.   

The event was filmed so once the video has been edited, I’ll put up a link to it on my website and here so that you can watch it and tell me what you think of it. 

A number of people emailed to say they had enjoyed the first chapter of The Red Body Stocking, so I'll be posting some more chapters in the next few days.

  1. I was looking forward to coming to your book launch but unfortunately something happened last Thursday which prevented me from attending. I'm so glad it went well for you.
