Chapter 2.12 The Handheld Diaries

I realise that literary agents are exhausting.

15 June 2018: Sales unexpectedly good for April & May, and looking good for June too. Trevor says he can’t remember where our sample books are.

Sent Keldberg to print.

Emailing my way through Judith’s list of possible reviewers for Kingdoms.

Mike has tidied up the images on the website. Now he needs standardised names and sizes.

18 June: Sent So Lucky contract to Charlotte.

Paid Trevor’s last invoice.

Read early chapters of a very good possible Modern novel, but it’s too long-drawn-out, and its historical sense hops about too confusingly. Needs editing and compressing, or reshuffling. Asked for the remaining chapters, which arrived promptly.

Reminded Neil Gaiman and Greer Gilman about their Kingdoms blurbs.

19 June: Checked Keldberg printer proofs.

Corrected Peace Pledge Union page about CO’s Wife with pic credit.

20 June: Ask Louise of Peoples Press for an author photo for Keldberg publicity: two good ones arrive. Gosh: look at his cheekbones.
