I interrupt this holiday to tell you something that made me positively squeak with excitement.
Yesterday, the cover of the Bah! book went to press.
Here’s the final version:
Very like the one you’ve seen before, but with the Bah! logo on the back and spine. Still with the blue sky and the snowdrop and the dragon, still without the pink and the capital ‘c’ for cancer.
Still lovely.
And a step closer to being an Actual Book, not a figment of my imagination, not a complex fantasy played out by me, my agent and my publisher.
Which makes me a step closer to feeling as though it’s really happening.
Which makes all of these conversations I’m having about blog tours and book launches and magazine articles and radio interviews even more exciting.
And what’s the best about it all is that I do feel I’ve written a genuinely helpful book, but it’s only going to be helpful when it’s out there.
Which is getting closer and closer.
Squeak with me, friends. Only 6 weeks to go…..
(Did I mention that you can pre-order? I didn’t? How very remiss of me. You can pre-order the Bah! book here.)
