As the dog 'said' when its tail was cut off. Shouldnae be long noo!

[jamesy (r.i.p.)]

Book looks now unlikely to be out before the Swally. Damn! Hopefully sometime next week though. I have asked for a 'speed-up' with the other complimentaries though.
Was gald to hear that botht the famous Millers, Frankie and Willie are enjoying the sample 'comp' copies I sent. Watch this space.

thats a shame your book won't be ready for the swally jamesyboy we could have had a wee reading from you, in the lounge

[jamesy (r.i.p.)]

Ah Well,I am a bit dissapointed Wull but my publisher has not been in touch this week. E mailed him on Wednesday as he was due back from abroad last weekend.

That should be ok Maggie in fact I have just been informed by E mail that ther are another Ten Copies coming to me early next week so that will take care of the rest of the complimentaries, Wull etc and I will keep you a copy aside for when you come over. I cam make arrangements wsith you nearer the time. Thank you again for your interest in my book.

[jamesy (r.i.p.)]

I have ten copies of the book arriving next week, so I will be clearing off some of the outstanding orders soon. YOO could be lucky. New price is £16 85.

My cousin is my transport, so trying to get things sorted out with her to get together with you to pick up my copy - that was a very convoluted sentence!!

Maggiem

[jamesy (r.i.p.)]

Right Maggie, let me know.

Jamesy

Going to be at the Scotia Bar night of the 19th Oct. with Mags and Maryjane. Any chance of meeting you then?

Maggiem

[jamesy (r.i.p.)]

I will try and drop in then Maggie but will let you know for definite nearer the time.

[maggiem]

OK, Jamsey

I leave here on the 5th. Will hopefully see you there - I've never met a famous author ;D

Maggiem

[jamesy (r.i.p.)]

Sure you don't mean infamous Maggie? (In ma case). Seriously, I hope you enjoy the book.

[Ella]

Hi Jamesy:

Do you have a list of all the people who have ordered your book? Just wondering when you will have enough for distribution. Hope you will let me know.


Ella....

[jamesy (r.i.p.)]

Hello Ella I have a 'rough' list of the people who have ordered the book but will have also to make time to go through all ther old posts on this site over the last year or so to check on them too.
In your own case, my advice from the publisher was for the overseas people to buy the book on-line but I will let you know, when its officially launched.

[Webmaister]

Ahm meeting Jamesyboy in the Peoples Palace mid October for an offishal hand over of a signed copy o' his book

I might even get a photo taken wi him ;D

[jamesy (r.i.p.)]

Thanks Webmaister, and I am going down to darkest Bridgeton this very evening (Ruby Street) with two copies of you know what. Well, it will be worth getting drenched for being £33.90 richer on the way back I suppose.
May be on Saga radio again too.

Jamesy

I really hope you're planning to drop in to the Scotia on the 19th. Looks like there will be quite a few of us. We'll be there around 7.30. If you do come, please bring me a copy of your book.

Thanks

Maggiem

[jamesy (r.i.p.)]

I will try and be there, if only for a flying visit Maggie. I am meeting Wull and Norrie, Josie I think too at People's Palace earlier that day.
No, correction. Thats on the Tuesday.

[jamesy (r.i.p.)]

Not Rose Coloured Cherlie, glasses or otherwise. You simply refuse to believe that evrybody did not live in poverty or close to it. Watch or you will turn into a Marxist if you are not careful. Terminal it is. I am immune thank the Lord

By the way, I saw your book today getting photocopied like hell. Ah'd watch yir Copyright if I was you.
