finish my book

I got the copy in my sticky hand yesterday and I’m thrilled with the way it looks and feels. I’m looking forward to promoting it in 2007!

It’s available via www.btpress.co.uk.

The book’s called ‘Creating Positive Futures’

The book will come out on the 1st November. It’s called Creating Positive Futures: Solution Focused Recovery from Mental Distress published in the UK by BT Press. We’re just choosing covers at the moment! I really never thought we’d get to this stage so it’s very very exciting. Also we got someone really well-known in the field to write our foreword and endorsement.

We wrote the last few words last week and it’s off to the publishers tomorrow! Finger’s crossed he won’t be asking for any rewrites. A few minor edits I could cope with…

just come back from a book meeting with my two co-authors and we agreed the text for the last chapter! I just need to add a wee bit – about 1000 words, and it will be done.

There’s hardly any left to do! I have been writing a textbook for nearly 5 years with two colleagues. They’ve had 4 children between the during that time. We thought we’d finished it last year but the editor asked us for another chapter. There are only about 5 pages left to do!
