I was thrilled yesterday to get this lovely framed gift from my mentoree Anna Pasternak ( ‘Princess in Love’ ‘Lara; The Untold Love Story That Inspired Doctor Zhivago’. ) I am helping with Anna on her memoir about her family history and her dramatic legal battle over the copyright ownership of ‘Lara’ after an American author used parts of it as a source for a fictionalisation of the story. Thank you Anna, much appreciated (especially as we have only had had two sessions together..)
Well, so much for bigging myself up. Except that, oh I must mention that I am on Times Radio tonight on the Ed Vaizey show https://www.thetimes.co.uk/radio sometime between 7-10 pm talking about my book and my mentoring services.
Sorry for the vulgar self-promotion, but this seems to be what writers have to do nowadays to survive. Oh for the days when we starved in garrets…
