New In Town

Just a quick entry to say my daughter finally read the book I wrote for her.
Rather amazingly she didn't put it down once she had started, it took her a fair few hours but she finished it all in one day.
Initially she didn't believe I had written it (compliment or shame?). I was so nervous about how she felt about it, I had invested over three years into this just for her.
Her response was flattering, but I am used to taking pinches of salt with appraisals from the nearest and dearest.
What really gives me a buzz is the fact that she now keeps talking about it, like she had just watched a film (she also asked if it could be made into one, which is cool). And she remembers so much of it.
Time to find an agent maybe, no rush though, other fish to fry, original intention has been realised.
In honour of Holly the song for today is one we both love.
Perfect modern pop pulp..... 'New in Town' by Little Boots is infectious and bouncy with a respectable dollop of synths.
Classic!!!!
