I'm seconding Bejamin8 here, where's the next one ?!? Seriously though, it was a bloody good read, although I did have to reintroduce myself to my wife when I'd finished, as she never heard a peep out of me for the 4 nights of constant reading!!! </p> http://www.seancregan.com/wall/topic.php?id=7#post-29 Mon, 03 May 2010 17:30:50 +0000 benjamin8 29@http://www.seancregan.com/wall/ <p>That is music to my ears! might have to order this one, cant wait for it to get down here in Australia when its released! </p> http://www.seancregan.com/wall/topic.php?id=7#post-28 Mon, 03 May 2010 08:43:01 +0000 Sean C 28@http://www.seancregan.com/wall/ <p>Thanks very much, mate. Glad you liked it. I'm editing the sequel now, so it's coming as fast as it can... :) </p> http://www.seancregan.com/wall/topic.php?id=7#post-27 Thu, 29 Apr 2010 10:04:24 +0000 benjamin8 27@http://www.seancregan.com/wall/ <p>Best book I have ever read!, but you've caused me pain as i need more! but i cant find anything similar, spent hours in bookshops trying to find something but I'm finding nothing, please finish the sequel! </p> http://www.seancregan.com/wall/topic.php?id=7#post-26 Mon, 29 Mar 2010 12:28:19 +0000 corebull 26@http://www.seancregan.com/wall/ <p>That makes absolute sense.

But since that's not the case it wouldn't, so I can't see how you could mention my name/I'd be happy with it to him in a way that'd mean anything to him either way. If you see what I mean. Unless I'm missing something somewhere, which is possible at this time of night - how?</p> <p>Luigi and his people at LBA are good sorts, and have a good record for giving new stuff a fair crack of the whip if it's the sort of thing that interests them or that they reckon they can sell. </p> http://www.seancregan.com/wall/topic.php?id=7#post-24 Sun, 28 Mar 2010 19:59:37 +0000 corebull 24@http://www.seancregan.com/wall/ <p>Off topic I know but here goes. My best mate's just finished writing a big stonking 211,000 word thriller. I've read it and helped him edit it. It's time to look for an agent. Luigi Bonomi and Darley Anderson seem to be the agents for crime/thrillers. Do you mind if we're cheeky and mention your name when sending a synopsis and sample chapters to Luigi? Trying to avoid the bottom of the slush pile. Title is Perfect Sin by Harn Core. </p> http://www.seancregan.com/wall/topic.php?id=8#post-23 Wed, 17 Mar 2010 17:59:12 +0000 Sean C 23@http://www.seancregan.com/wall/ <p>Glad you liked it, mate. Doubly impressed that it's spread as far as NZ - you never can tell with these things! :) </p> http://www.seancregan.com/wall/topic.php?id=8#post-22 Wed, 03 Mar 2010 13:10:39 +0000 GuyNZ 22@http://www.seancregan.com/wall/ <p>Picked up The Levels at random (Whitcoulls Wellington Airport) - film selection on the plane was poor and so finding that I'd grabbed an excellent noir page-turner was a great relief. Love the feeling the book gives of almost descending into some kind of underworld; can see this copy getting dog-eared pretty quickly. Nice! </p> http://www.seancregan.com/wall/topic.php?id=7#post-21 Wed, 17 Feb 2010 12:22:21 +0000 Sean C 21@http://www.seancregan.com/wall/ <p>If I'd thought about it, I could've incorporated a glass ring into the signature... :D </p> http://www.seancregan.com/wall/topic.php?id=7#post-20 Tue, 16 Feb 2010 18:12:18 +0000 corebull 20@http://www.seancregan.com/wall/ <p>Got the book. Excellent.Thanks for not getting a beer glass ring on the cover of this rare first edition in the pub! Will try to get The Argus to review or to print my review once I've read it. </p> http://www.seancregan.com/wall/topic.php?id=7#post-19 Sun, 14 Feb 2010 01:24:05 +0000 Sean C 19@http://www.seancregan.com/wall/ <p>Which of course is monstrously slow, but the past week has been mental. All for good reasons, but mental nonetheless. </p> http://www.seancregan.com/wall/topic.php?id=7#post-18 Sun, 14 Feb 2010 01:22:53 +0000 Sean C 18@http://www.seancregan.com/wall/ <p>It was in your email, mate so no worries there. They'll be going in the post Monday... </p> http://www.seancregan.com/wall/topic.php?id=7#post-17 Sat, 13 Feb 2010 21:09:56 +0000 corebull 17@http://www.seancregan.com/wall/ <p>Thanks for choosing me as one of the winners in The Levels competition.

He would like to stock signed first editions of The Levels but got nowhere with the publisher. He does mail order too. It would be great if you could use Alan to flog some signed copies. <a href="http://www.alanwhitefinebooks.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.alanwhitefinebooks.com</a> <a href="mailto:info@alanwhitefinebooks.com">info@alanwhitefinebooks.com</a> </p> http://www.seancregan.com/wall/topic.php?id=7#post-13 Thu, 21 Jan 2010 18:53:06 +0000 Sean C 13@http://www.seancregan.com/wall/ <p>The local book shop (there are two more, also chains, but limited fiction and zero stock space, not to mention no mailing) is Waterstones, who do (or always did) signed stuff centrally and certainly don't mail out. Our only indie bookstore - which did non-fic and textbooks only - went tits up a couple of years ago. I'm not sure there are any with the capacity to do it even in Brighton.</p> <p>Not that there's anything that'd stop a store elsewhere in the country doing it if they ordered a load from Gardners and had the delivery shipped here first (easy, since Gardners are local). I've done that in the past with a batch of copies for Poisoned Pen in the US. I just don't know any stores elsewhere with the exception of Goldsboro and I don't know if they do mail either.</p> <p>Something to look into once my edits are done, I reckon. </p> http://www.seancregan.com/wall/topic.php?id=7#post-12 Thu, 21 Jan 2010 10:43:11 +0000 Suw 12@http://www.seancregan.com/wall/ <p>Sean, why don't you set up an agreement with a local book shop, so they keep a small stock of signed copies on hand and can do mail order to anyone who wants one? </p> http://www.seancregan.com/wall/topic.php?id=7#post-11 Thu, 14 Jan 2010 01:00:28 +0000 Sean C 11@http://www.seancregan.com/wall/ <p>I've not signed any yet (aside from a copy I gave to the staff at my little boy's nursery 'cos they asked) so there's not many around. Doubly so since Amazon are the only place I know of to have broken the release date and already have it for sale; everyone else should be following suit next week. After that, I don't know tbh. Harrogate this year, certainly, but I don't have the foggiest what else might be on the calendar that I'd be out and about at... </p> http://www.seancregan.com/wall/topic.php?id=7#post-10 Mon, 11 Jan 2010 10:18:20 +0000 corebull 10@http://www.seancregan.com/wall/ <p>Where can I get a signed First Edition of The Levels?

The BBP end is that, hung off bits I carved out of the default Kakumei - never tried using BBP before and it has next to zero documentation, so gotta start somewhere. Only bits I couldn't be buggered to change from that were the registration form pages. </p>
