Well, it's been fun, but all good things and all that.
Self-publishing Looking for Buttons was an interesting experiment. I received useful feedback from readers, I 'met' some fantastically helpful people online who came to my aid as I learned the ropes, and I alarmed a few old acquaintances who thought they were the inspiration for characters in the book (generally, they weren't). A couple of them are still talking to me. As for the others, well, if the cap fits, darling...
But now it's time to call a halt.
Various reasons mean that writing has been firmly on the back burner for some time now. I rarely update this blog or the Facebook page, so I think it's time I declared them closed. For now, the book is still available on Amazon, and I do still occasionally loiter on Twitter (@looking4buttons), so if you've enjoyed the book, do say hello.
Thank you to everyone who's taken an interest, especially if you bought the book.
Fergus would suggest this would be a good time to adjourn to the pub. Dob would suggest a cocktail, preferably accompanied by a debonair gentleman. Kate would probably hole up with a cup of tea and a glossy mag. I leave it to you to speculate on which of those I prefer. Au revoir.
