Reading My 'Deprivations' Novel from 1pm at Chapter One Books, 19 Lever Street, M1 1BY Manchester

 I've now got a few hours to go before I read out extracts from my book and talk about how I write.

And how I write is often combined with my experiences which include when I have taught adults of various ages.

I'm not freaked out.

In fact I remember teaching classes of students at a university about gender issues.

Plus I was marking half of their essays (their form teacher marked the other half).

Didn't worry me at all.

Once you've been a front man singing for several bands (including being a guest singer) nothing can bother you.   Except stand up comedy which I did a couple of times - now THAT I found scary.

I should add I got applause not boos.  But I'll never do that again.

Anyhow.  The session is:

Tales of the Macabre: A Gothic Reader's Group
from 1pm at
Chapter One Books,
19 Lever Street,
Manchester,
M1 1BY

At least it'll be a distraction from the elections in the UK and in France.

I can certainly talk of the links between the 'Deprivations' novel and politics in the world.

Remember - you can download the Kindle version of this 'Deprivations' novel  Monday, 8th May and Tuesday 9th May.
