Postcard from the internet


The opening chapters of my novel 'Map Reading' are now available to read on the HarperCollins website www.authonomy.com/ViewBook.aspx?bookid=312 . Please take a look. I'm thrilled by the number of enthusiastic comments I've had so far.

Map Reading is the first novel I've completed and has spent the last year or so being polished and improved. It's essentially the story of a woman trying to find happiness and is set against a background of travel, friendship and romance. You never know, it might be your kind of thing!

It would be great if you could look at Map Reading on Authonomy and, if you like what you see, register and vote for me by putting the book on your online bookshelf. This will increase my chances of getting into the top five and potentially winning a critique from an editor at HarperCollins. I'd love to get that feedback from a professional but I'd also really like to hear your thoughts – please drop me an email and let me know.

I've worked out how to put a coment on here (I'm no good at these things). Good luck with the book, and how do you put a link on this thing?

Hi Robert, thanks for your good wishes. Link from what to where? If you mean within the blog entry, there's a 'hyperlink' icon above the box where you type the text you're going to post - highlight the address and click 'link' and it'll transform into a live link. If that wasn't what you meant, feel free to email me - address is under my profile.
