  1. Picture This in York street were great. £1.99 for a sample shot of my son was a promotion.
  2. HOUSE CREATIONS on the main road on the way to Walkley.
  3. What secret plot? You can help me with mine on Stephens Hill with pleasure. I have let it go I'm afraid but would prefer not to lose it altogether. The soil is heavy so needs some manure and or compost. Could hand it on to you in fact come to think of it, if I can still go there and sit in the shed from time to time...
  4. Um. Others have said the right things. If I were a editor I'd only want to read one page, wouldn't you? Stella Whitelaw says there are three basic elements to a book proposal: covering letter synopsis the first two or three chapters therefor the first couple of chapters have to be brilliant, the synopsis is brief, sparkling. The covering letter is a fanfare, trumpet call, saying HERE I AM. READ ME. It should have: legibility clarity briefness quality. Use plain paper: no gimmicks: chose publisher carefully: phone first to get a name: state simply what you are enclosing, using the title of the book : the second paragraph should be a line about the type of book and its theme, repeating the title: the third give your track record if you have one (not that your grannie loved it!). That's all. Do not pack in fancy ring binder. Don't staple, punch holes, tag. Collect, stack, put an elastic band sideways around and another longways and pop into clear plastic bag. Freezer bags are clear and don't split. label withe title and your name and address. The covering letter shoud be uppermost so that it is the first to be seen. Send in a bubble-pack Jiffy bag, clearly addressed. Check everything esp sufficient return post. Use recorded delivery if you are nervous. Da Daaaaaaaaaaa you're done. Let us know how it goes please.
