MORE MALHERBE-UITGEWERS.  22nd August 2020.

And so a few more weeks have passed and the books are still not on the shelf. I don't know why but since the Coronavirus struck the country seems to have settled into slow motion mode. Nothing gets done quickly any more. I asked Renault to collect my car and fix a small oil leak that appeared after the last service and five working days later they have still not made an appearance. This after many reminder calls. 

Malherbe are working on my books though. They have started pre-launch advertising on their Facebook page. Facebook.com.Malherbe Uitgewers. They actually have four Facebook addresses. One for Afrikaans books, one for Poetry, one for English writer's and one for general news. They also have a web page www.malherbeuitgewers.co.za. It is quite enlightening to see what the other poets and authors have to say. They have a free reading section where you can "Test drive" a book that you want to purchase. Read a few pages to see whether you like the writers style. There are also lots of poems available to read. I like them so far. I hope you find their web site easy to open and peruse. Let's hope the books will be available for purchase next time I write.

I have just learned that the guys at Dynacure have purchased a whole lot of copies of Living with CNM. Dynacure are currently testing a cure for CNM and when I let them know my book was available, they purchased 12 copies for their staff. What a jackpot. 12 copies in one hit. Lovely.
