It has taken months to get the new one together after the old one got a virus somehow and then the host company wouldn't help to remove it, in fact no-one knew how to get it removed, I was so busy with a book deadline and then finally a friend's husband came to my rescue, in fact, when I meet him in San Antonio when I visit for classes at the end of April I will give him his coat of shining armour for being my saviour haha! It has been a worry, what with being busy with a new title and a strict deadline, I must admit I pushed it to the back of my mind hoping somehow it would go away but at last it's sorted.</span><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;">In the Summer I plan to write up some tutorials, something I've been wanting to do for ages now. I decided on another book as the publisher twisted my arm ;o) promising to have it ready for the huge CAKE 2011 show in November at the Birmingham NEC. I like to have something new for that show so I agreed, but it has put me back by around 3 months, but oh well, I'll catch up soon enough. The Shop products will increase slowly as I don't want to sell just anything, just products I really like and would use myself. There's so much useless stuff out there that you think you'll use forever and they stay in the cupboard!</span><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;">Oh well, 10 minute break from the latest cake for the new book. I have a few more to do that'll take me up to the end of next week and then it's preparing all the step photography and write-up which usually takes ages and is very repetitive but has to be done. When it's all sent off I think a nice bottle of red will have to be opened to celebrate!</span><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;">Debbie x</span><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1761935539146841621-1757796731761679948?l=debbiebrownscakes.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Debbie Brownhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17208772949332772535noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1761935539146841621.post-18004457906334466732010-11-30T15:53:00.000-08:002010-11-30T16:12:51.560-08:00<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_0ax3FT_F86k/TPWS_Pvj0QI/AAAAAAAAABU/Nlpe2QFLM9U/s1600/Fairy%2BWand.jpg"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 267px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5545500131432059138" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_0ax3FT_F86k/TPWS_Pvj0QI/AAAAAAAAABU/Nlpe2QFLM9U/s320/Fairy%2BWand.jpg" /></a><br /><div align="left"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0ax3FT_F86k/TPWSHGFWLtI/AAAAAAAAABM/-nYEF6hCHPs/s1600/Acorn%2BFairy.jpg"><span style="font-size:0;"></span><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 253px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5545499166766411474" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0ax3FT_F86k/TPWSHGFWLtI/AAAAAAAAABM/-nYEF6hCHPs/s320/Acorn%2BFairy.jpg" /></a><br /></div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0ax3FT_F86k/TPWRgSxARtI/AAAAAAAAABE/6kJE6Xmtgxs/s1600/Cloud%2BCastle.jpg"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 262px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5545498500155852498" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0ax3FT_F86k/TPWRgSxARtI/AAAAAAAAABE/6kJE6Xmtgxs/s320/Cloud%2BCastle.jpg" /></a><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0ax3FT_F86k/TPWRF0fhXSI/AAAAAAAAAA8/sfmqOB94bew/s1600/G%2526G%2B020.jpg"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 259px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5545498045352860962" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0ax3FT_F86k/TPWRF0fhXSI/AAAAAAAAAA8/sfmqOB94bew/s320/G%2526G%2B020.jpg" /></a><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0ax3FT_F86k/TPWQvHW1FrI/AAAAAAAAAA0/HFXiStBhTeE/s1600/Cute%2BPuppy%2Breduced%2Bipg.jpg"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 240px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5545497655279687346" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0ax3FT_F86k/TPWQvHW1FrI/AAAAAAAAAA0/HFXiStBhTeE/s320/Cute%2BPuppy%2Breduced%2Bipg.jpg" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">I'm thrilled to hear that the new title Gorgeous &amp; Gruesome (published by New Holland) sold out within the first two weeks and the reprint stock is getting low already. I thought that the Children's Character book (published by Dutton Publishing) would sell the most but G&amp;G has held its own considering it's a book with cakes from my imagination and not used from a copyright character, so thank you to anyone that's purchased this book and I hope it brings you lots of fun!</span></div><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><span style="font-family:Trebuchet MS;"></span></div><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><span style="font-family:Trebuchet MS;">Some images from the book :o)</span></div><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><span style="font-family:Trebuchet MS;"></span></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1761935539146841621-1800445790633446673?l=debbiebrownscakes.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Debbie Brownhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17208772949332772535noreply@blogger.com4
