Good afternoon,
I hope you are well.
Just a brief message today to announce that my new book is now available for pre-order. I'm really delighted with it.
It's very important these days for authors to get a good 'spike' of pre-order sales on Amazon. It tricks the Amazon algorithms into thinking that you're actually important and worth them promoting more heavily online. This can make a huge difference to overall sales.
So if you can think of any young person who would enjoy a copy of the book, I'd be really grateful if you ordered a copy or two today. The book is the final part in my trilogy of stories about a young boy, Tom, who sets out to try to cycle round the world. His adventures bear an uncanny similarity to my own experiences...
(Apologies to those in the US - the book is not released there until January. Don't ask me why!)
I'll also be speaking at these public events in the next couple of weeks:
- September 30th, London. The Kindness of Strangers: the London Adventurer Community supporting the Refugee Crisis.
(We are also collecting unwanted outdoor equipment too. If you can help with that, please email here.) - October 5th, London. An Adventurers' Gathering. (Almost sold out.)
If you are interested in travel and photography, my friend Chris Herwig is in the UK this week to launch his new, very quirky, beautiful book about Soviet Bus Stops. He has these two events in London.
Finally, I'd love it if you'd subscribe to my YouTube Adventure Channel to be the first to know when I release a new film.
Cheers!
Alastair
ps - Much as I love South Africa, I am definitely now an honourary Japanese man. Ganbatte -Good Luck- tomorrow in the rugby against Scotland!
