Well, it didn't happen. I mean, neither contract has been signed. The Society of Authors were very helpful in pointing out clauses which were either not necessary or not in my interests and when I took these back to publishers concerned, one of them replied to the effect that they were not prepared to change the contracts and withdrew the original offer. The other publisher has yet to reply and I hold out little hope that they will after several requests.
Ah, well. It was obviously not to be. Onwards and upwards. The good news is that one of my stories 'Sapphire Blue' has reached the short list of the UK Authors Writers' Competition. I'm keeping everything I have two of crossed (painful).
Since my last posting I have been on holiday. I thought you might enjoy my humorous (hopefully) look at what we got up to for some of the time. I stopped writing the blog after a week because it was taking up too much of my time and I wanted to write some serious stuff. I have no idea if anyone reads this stuff. If you do, let me know. If you don't read it, let me know.
Holiday blog follows...
