The day started off well, I had my first order from Nielsen's Book Data. The only trouble was no one had told me how to fulfil it so when he who knows all was not forthcoming I had to shout N.B.D. for help then wait in a state of frenzy in suspended flux. They soon replied and were so helpful after which I did as they suggested and tried to open a trading account with the Buyer. I did this by email and am still waiting for a reply.
Not to worry, they wanted the book so I will wait. Then the post came and the payment for Wednesday's telesales order arrived. There was a lovely note saying, "Thank you." I thought that was nice.
Yesterday I had a wonderful review from my friend in Japan it is below. I sent a copy of Essentially Oils review to a friend, she was over the moon telling me I must feel proud and if not then why not!
We went out to celebrate the book sale tonight and then as a gesture of thanks I went shopping, with he who has the compeetoes, at a supermarket. So what? Well I don't as a rule do the shopping but it takes up less time than that which I do carry out so maybe I am in the wrong job.
The review reads,
Your book is an imaginative and excellent. I can visualize it in other formats : ANIME, CARTOON and AUDIO - which I think you should read yourself. Women writers have come a long way. Today two of my favourite authors are the Canadians : Alice Munro and Margaret Atwood. I have already added Delphine Hollingwood to my list of preferred writers.
Finally to brighten things up altogether the sun shone today so the clothes were doing the line dance leaping up and down to keep warm in the chilly wind. That is about it so it is one step at a time and time and no running! Everything will turn up rosy in time and be sweet enough to eat
