Is it just me?

OK - first of all - if you log on regularly to read my random by oh-so-stimulating rants, then thank you and sorry that I have been a bit slack for the past two weeks!

I have been very busy though and the reason why is about to become clear!

Because I would desperately like to become a rich and revered author, I have decided to self publish a book of columns I have written over the years.

The book (imaginatively titled) 'Is it just me' should be available by next Tuesday, December 12 (just in time for Christmas - I hear you cry).

Thanks to my friend Rebecca Grisman at Gallery Group who convinced me to do it - then had her staff do the leg work - we are printing 3000 books. It's a tricky process - I have to sell about 800 books to break even - and I don't really know why I'm telling you all the gory details, other than I need to vent.

My friend Jo at work just asked me 'Are you ok?' (she didn't know about the book) and it occurred to me that I have probably looked like someone with a very bad headache for the past couple of weeks. Could look worse in the weeks to come!

Anyway...stand by for more details, thanks to Kook Multimedia, a pdf of the book is about to appear on this site (I don't even know what pdf actually stands for...but i know it means you are about to see the cover of the book)...

Thanks for listening...I'll keep you updated!

Love Caroline

So so proud of you for finding the time to finish that book! I thought it was years away. Are you going to give yourself a year off 'new years resolutions' or have you already started thinking about possible 2007 accomplishments!
