Bound proofs!!!!



Yesterday I received something very very thrilling .. bound proofs of my book ( a sort of dummy version of the real book that is circulated before publication). It's very amazing to see it finally looking like a book. I've tended to forget how hard it was, at times, to write this book, because I'm so busy finding Book 2 hard, that I sometimes look back and think it was easy. It wasn't. It was really hard. So it's good to have a concrete reminder that I DID IT! I never thought, while writing The Out of Office Girl, that I'd get to this stage - but here it is.

The usual author allowance is about five or ten I think: I went mad and ordered 50. If you would like one, please say so in the comments and I will get one to you!
