15 May
Waterstones put in their core stock order – books are being sent to 150 of their shops – mostly one copy to each – but it’s a beginning. Do a phone interview with Three Counties Radio film programme – although inevitably they ask about the film – I am actually able to talk about the book too. On Wednesday I do LBC with Jeni Barnett – about half an hour – she is a great interviewer and makes me feel totally at ease. Catch up with the accounts. The quotes I am getting back from printers vary enormously. Sign books in the Persephone Bookshop. The stuck-in-a-book blog review goes up. The Daily Mail review gets online.
