It was one of those ALL THE TREATS ARE FOR ME moments at the HarperCollins offices…

How I love the muffins from their canteen, with extraordinarily huge lumps of banana (I won’t share a picture, trust me – you really don’t want to see).

But not half as much as much as I love…

 

 

a brown paper reveal…

 

 

and a very first, long-awaited copy of my new book, to hold in my eager hands and stroke.

I practically would have licked it, but there were other people present (and there had just been the banana muffin, of course).
