I can recommend on-line parties – there’s no clearing up to do.
And it’s my fault I feel a bit jaded -stayed up to watch Andy Murray get defeated in Miami last night. Never mind, Andy, there’s always the next time…
But I’ve woken up to this … my amazing publisher has done something else for me, through her alter-ego. Check it out here: Cathie Dunn if you wish to learn a bit more about BREATH OF AFRICA and how it all began.

Absolutely love your blog, Jane. Lots and lots of interest here – shall check it out regularly. Will send a message explaining the Jill/Julie duality and in the meantime I am wishing your book all the success in the world. Re your comment on MY blog, when my mother, the world’s worst gardener (well, after all, she’d had shamba “boys” all her life until then!) she grew African violets rather successfully in her small conservatory. So there’s always something you can grow. I have only a small house and very small garden now but it gives me lots of pleasure.
