Just a quick post to say that things are going very well with BLOOD TIES downunder! Last Sunday, I was in the Sydney Sun Herald with a *whole page* to myself. I was a little worried that they'd have to use a really large font or leave big gaps but the very lovely Robyn Doreian did a fantastic job writing the article. We were on the phone for an hour so by the end of the interview, she knew plenty about me.
By all accounts, sale of the book are going 'blazingly well' and I've even been getting fan mail from readers - so thanks to everyone who's been in touch. It really is great to know that my book is out there...being read...being enjoyed.
I'm doing a Meet the Author clip very soon. Take a look at the site if you don't know about it. They've recently added a 'pitch your book' section and an authors' lounge. I'll add a link to my clip when I've done it. Then again... ;-)

Well done on the article, Sam.
I've no idea about the blogger thing.
Thanks, Neil. No doubt blogger's quirks will remain a mystery!
Sam, not sure if you've seen this:

I think the blogger thing may have something to do with the use of 'blockquote' -- whenever I've used the quote button for text in a blog entry, it's affected the text that follows it. It goes single-spaced for no apparent reason. So I've stopped using the bugger and just use italics instead.
