Three weeks ...
Well, it seems to me that I have been talking about Sepulchre far too much!
Back in October 2007, my UK publisher organized the launch of Sepulchre for Hallowe'en. It took place in the crypt of St Martin's in the Fields - a church in the famous Trafalgar Square in London. This wonderful venue was exactly the right place for a spooky party to launch a novel with demons and dark happenings.
Since then, though, I have visited 17 countries to address readers of all nationalities. I have been welcomed by so many delightful readers that now and then I feel a fraud and have to remind myself that each time I talk about how I came to write the book - it is to a new audience. I shouldn't worry about repeating myself. But it is hard not to ...
My husband Greg and I have been in France for three weeks on a substantial tour to the southwest - the locations of most of the action in Sepulchre. We had an exhibition of photographs of the novel's locations in the actual village in the Pyrenees where the tale unfolds. We did a bilingual conference to an audience of 150 local people and several signings, including Atelier-Empreinte at Rennes-le-Château. It was a wonderful trip and I met some remarkable people.
But after all that, I have now been traveling for Sepulchre for nearly a year. I am, in fact, blogging from Singapore right now and will soon move on to Australia and New Zealand. When I return to Europe, I have visits to Germany and the Baltic, taking me past 31 October and the anniversary of the first launch.
Then I will start thinking properly about what I am going to write next ...
