The late afternoon sunlight is so low it lights the tops of the trees, the lack of rain and clear skies burnishing the high canopy in warm gold. We have had such a beautiful autumn, a kind of dream time when one season sleeps into another.

The book isn’t out until January in Ireland and March in the States, but if you’d like a copy eventually here is the pre-order discount code. I’ll share it again and have some launches planned in Bellaghy, Belfast and Dublin for late Feb/ early March. Do come along, I’d be glad to see you.
