Hello ED'ites,


Just a note to say that I'm a local journalist, published in Grazia, Marie Claire, Red, The Guardian, Times Style, and more, and my debut novel ??Bondi Blonde ? has just been published as an e-book (?1.59 on Amazon). Exciting!


I know there are a few book clubs in the area and I just wanted say that if any of you chose to review the book I'd LOVE to hear what you think, share the journey of the book with you...I've been signed to Curtis Brown with it and Holly Valance has read it and given me a quote for the cover...etc.


I love my 'hood' and all the creatives that make it the postcode T.D.F ;-)


You can read what the press has to say about it, and contact me, at www.lucillehowe.com, read more about me at www.curtisbrown.co.uk/lucille-howe and the book is here:

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Bondi-Blonde-ebook/dp/B0080XQVMU/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1340374250&sr=8-1


That's all! Happy holiday reading, whatever candy you choose for your Kindle this summer xxx

I think it's just usual EDF sniffy banter Jumpingbean. The world is full of armchair cynics, many of whom won't bother their arses to do anything. Completing a book takes a great deal of time, hard work, motivation and discipline - whatever anyone says and whatever anyone thinks of the content it's a huge achievement so well done (and good luck).

Mr Ben,


What a delightful chap you are! Thank you so much for waving your virtual pom poms for me. I just wanted to spread some positivity in the community and offer to share my experiences...maybe inspire some of those cynics out of their armchairs. Lovely meeting you on here and thank you again for taking the time to write.


Best wishes,

Im not going to get on your case, and im sure its a great book given your background and the cover really is a delight, but if you come along for a bit of self PR then ask for nothing critical in return, then you may find things dont go according to plan. Good luck.
The critisism wasn't aimed at my book but the way my post was written. Not just PR'ing but offering to share my experiences and knowledge at no cost. The book is only ?1.59. Believe me, there are quicker ways to earn that than spending time communicating on this forum! Pls see note about negativity. I'd like to keep this thread as a conversation between those interested. Enjoy you weekend. Lucille x
I did interview her, yes. She's an inspiration...a real self-starter who made all her success happen for herself. She pitched her TV show to the BBC, and her book to the publishers, without any fancy agent or publicist. Glamorous, talented and ambitious. Go the Khoo!

    • Hi Does anyone have an electric keyboard they are looking to get rid of. It needs to be able to plug into the computer via USB connection, so she can do her composition for GCSE music. Thanks
    • Thanks TWB! I’m actually looking for an unwanted/unused small scratcher at the moment. Ideally something similar to the below
    • Gosh, calm down.. How about not getting so heated, and not eat for 24 hours with sips of water? Try it and you may, just may understand, starvation, no water. No meds at all even if you need them - hasten to add, don’t do it at all if you are medically dependent. In fact, why doesn’t ED - do this for half a day - say in Oct, when everyone has come back from enjoying their, hols, new term starting and as a community, we could all be 1.? Before, November, fireworks, etc.
