VISITING WATERSTONES - MY FAVOURITE BOOKSTORE IN THE BRENTWOOD HIGH STREET ON THURSDAY

 


It's always a pleasure to visit Waterstones Book Shop in Brentwood High Street, especially at Christmas time.  A gale may have been blowing outside last Saturday evening, but all was warm and happy with super Manager Ross and his staff who arranged a lovely book signing for us all - Ross's mince pies were good, too!

Although all book shops hold a fascination for those of us who can't stop reading, this particular store is special in that I have enjoyed great friendship with Waterstones from the time my first book BRENTWOOD VOICES was published so many years ago.  

Two other great writers were in store to meet and greet readers on Thursday and it was a great pleasure to meet Ian Brown whose beautifully illustrated books for children about Albert (the tortoise) made a splash of colour.  

Another amazing  scribe, Barnaby Walter (B P Walter), a brilliant young novelist was also of huge interest introducing his new book (see below)  and both authors, hopefully, will come to Brentwood Writers' Circle next year to talk about their individual successful writing lives.  Watch this space!!!
