The Worm is launched!

The Big Day is finally here!  And the (some might say obsessive…) planning has paid off, as “Worm in the Blossom” has hit all the relevant shelves at the right time.  Here it is in Heffers this morning:

And I have checked all the e-venues – iBooks, Nook, Kobo, Gumroad – and all listings are now live.  The only laggard is the Book Depository, and their catalogue will pick it up on their next sweep.  (I’ve never sold anything through them but no-one likes a monopoly, so I try to give an alternative for people who want a paperback-not-through-Amazon.)

My lovely friend and book blogger Jo has kindly featured me as her guest blogger today – you can read my post here.  Jo is also one of my reviewers, so now I wait on tenterhooks to see what she thinks of “Worm”.  Because yes, that’s the next step: waiting for those reviews and rating to start appearing…

But for now Sam and I will enjoy the moment.  And then next week I start thinking in earnest about “Plank 4” – I’ve already booked a library research day in the diary.
