Just to let everybody know that Party Animal will be published in the first week of December and the launch will be during the second week of December (date to be confirmed shortly). It is an absolutely brilliant book with amazing stories from all the best loved authors. I am so proud of the collection and I would urge everybody to buy it even as a Christmas present for somebody as all the profits will go to animal charities who are in desperate neeed of money. Please, please support it, thanks!

Oh cool Oonagh. The book is going to the typesetters on Monday and I'm still proofing. That's why I'm on this site and bebo all day cos my concentration span isn't very good.
I'll be at the computer all day today (with X Factor on in the background) and all day tomorrow and hopefully then on Monday I'll be able to pop out for a mouthful of fresh air!!

I'll deffo be buying it anyway. I love short stories, I love the authors contributing and I love animals, so it works all round! I have to go to London with work in the second week of Dec though, so I might not make the launch - I'll be going from Tue to Thur of that week. Sure we'll see.

I'm proud to be a contributor to Party Animal! I'm really looking forward to seeing it between the covers amongst all my favourite author's stories......I still can't believe my name is in there too!

How do launches work for books like party animal with lots of different authors? Do most the authors attend? or do set authors go to different launches?

Hi Everybody, just to let you know, I postponed Party Animal until March ( bringing it out for Mother's Day instead)as I felt it might not get its deserved attention swamped among the Christmas blockbusters.
I hope to have as my many authors as possible along for the launch and yes, I certianly hope mto have a mini launch inCork too and possibly one in Belfast. Will keep you posted, M.

Thats great Marisa. You are so right - there were so many new books on the market this Christmas, it might not have got the due attention it deserves. Will look forward to the mini-launch in Cork! And meeting you and others from the site then again. Happy New Year!

What happened with Party Animal, Marisa - I know it was postponed further, but will it be released before the end of the year? Would really like to read it.
