The book’s called Taking Flight, you see, and I’ll be talking about it, so if you add oh never mind.
Yes Lev, very subtle.
Anyway, the point is that when a book is published, there are often events associated with said book: bookshop talks, book festivals and so on. We have a fair few lined up, and it would be terrific to see people at them. Do feel free to spread the word.
You can book through the highlighted links. If you live in an area not represented on the list, and would welcome such a thing in your neighbourhood, do let me know – especially if you have a local bookshop you think might be persuaded to host one.
Most imminently, I’m doing an online chat with David Lindo, aka The Urban Birder, for his series In Conservation With (it’s a pun not a typo, before you ask).
David’s long been a supporter of my books and I always find our conversations invigorating, whatever the subject. It’s a free event and you don’t even have to be dressed to attend. Bonus.
