Work in Progress

Albia book 15, Title announced as Ghosts of Our Ancestors!

Publication 2027:

The manuscript is now finished and I am working thorugh copy editing queries, then proofs.

I have asked for the print to be that great Birmingham font, Baskerville. It’s raised the question of who actually chooses what typeface to use for books: is it the publisher’s design team or the printer of the work? My editor says I am the first author in 40+ years who has ever asked about fonts. But Hodders have willingly agreed to publish the next book in Baskerville Punch, the new revivion of this famous font.

This book will be my first to be fully covered by registration in the Human Authored scheme.
