As I wander round the county in search of further sales and acclaim, there are some very pleasant occasions when I unexpectedly stumble across a Valley Press book. Here is some photographic evidence from the last few months of the books 'on location', arguably in their natural habitat - the bookshop...
 |
| Norah Hanson's Love Letters... in the window of Waterstone's Hull. |
 |
| Steve Rudd's Pulse in WHSmith Driffield (travel section). |
 |
| ...and on the counter with 'Angry Birds', an unlikely pairing! |
 |
| Four copies of Jo Reed's Stone Venus in Waterstone's Scarborough. |
Apologies for the quality of the pictures - all taken with my phone, the best equipment I had to hand! If you, gentle reader, should happen to see any of our books in a shop near you (and you've got a lot of time on your hands), why not
write in and let us see it! Frankly, it's how I get my kicks. If you'd then like to forward a picture of the empty shelf, after they've all been bought en masse, that will be even better...
With a few more like this you could set up a treasure trail round Yorkshire's more discerning bookshops. With prizes of course!
ReplyDeletehi Jamie, this must have been a good thing to see :)
ReplyDeleteIf I had payed more attention on the covers, I would have seen it when I was looking for Valley Press books in Scarborough, just days before you posted this. I got discouraged when the poetry section in the bookstore was upstairs and my feet didn't want to carry me anymore. :) Next time, I will look better and walk on good shoes :)
Good luck
