Wow the photo shoot for my book was amazing!

Hello

Today we went to see Emma for the photo shoot for my book. How amazing! Seb was super cute and the relationship between Cat and Seb was truly beautiful and captured so successfully by Emma. Emma you are a star. I can't wait to see the photographs again. The difficulty I'll have is deciding which ones I shall keep for my book..I know I'll want so many of them but need to pick just 15 or 20. Oh no, I feel this is going to be tricky...I may have to enlist the support of others here.

I'm going back with Blossom to see Emma next Wednesday to take a few more shots for the book. Blossom is very excited and so am I!!

Thanks again to Cat, Seb, Nicole and Emma without your help this project wouldn't have been able to move forward with such ease. A huge THANK YOU to you all.

OK, I better get on with the manuscript or I simply won't meet my deadline of January 2011!

Warmest wishes for now

The snow has melted and I'm 20,090 words in!

Hello all

It's been a few days since I caught up with you..so here's the news. All the snow has gone. I can now get my car on the drive and I've written 20,090 words towards my final manuscript.

Time is ticking by and I'm feeling suitably pleased with my efforts so far. I've given the partially completed manuscript to a couple of people and the feedback has been positive. My former colleague has described the book as 'pure magic'. Another colleague has said, 'I love it and can't wait to read more'.

I'm now visualising my book on many shelves, across many lands, in many languages!

Thank you Emma for agreeing to take the photos for the book. I'm looking forward to the photo shoot with you, Kat, Sebastian and Nicole on Wednesday.

Warmest wishes for now

Snow...and so much of it!

Hello

I thought I'd let you know the snow is piling up outside. It looks incredible here but I haven't been able to get out to see any clients. This has meant some more time at home working on my book and to play snow ball battles with Blossom and Vu.

I'm 17,000 words in to my book now. Isn't this exciting? I have a new title ready now too. I'll let you know a little later, at the same time as the pre launch publicity!

I have started working with Kat (lovely mum) and her wonderful baby son, Seb. In order for me to demonstrate my theories we are working together on the Case Study Section of the book. I will also be supporting Kat to develop her own early communication system with Seb. Seb is fantastic. The bond between Kat and Seb is truly beautiful.What an honour to work with such wonderful people.

Thank you Nicole for putting us in touch with one another. You are a star!

I better sign off for now, as I have lots of work to do on the book and am utilising my blog as a distraction technique!

Warmest wishes from this very snowy land
