Horrible wet weather so a wet weekend selling magazines on Manchester book market.
Miserable, damp, cold and slow sales. Why do I do it?
Sold more Black Statics than Interzones. Unusual.
Emma Audsley was a big help on Friday.
Croatia was a much better choice.
Onward to Derby for Edge-Lit

Argh, sorry to hear - shame.

Hope Derby goes better. Not sure whether I'm off to that one yet. I was sorry not to see you at Alt.Fiction in Leicester, but the dealer room there was very small and a bit tucked away - only 2 tables there.
