Will you publish this book as a paperback or hardback? I would like to read it but do not typically read ebooks or kindle books. I like an old fashioned book in my hand :)

Yes, I’m the same when it comes to books. Unfortunately no plans for a paperback or hardback at this stage. But if a literary agent or publisher shows interest in this option, I would definitely consider it. Before A Weaver’s Web was an ebook, I approached over 100 agents and some publishers but I don’t think anyone is taking on much new work at all these days for the traditional printed book market. I plan to write a script based fairly closely on the novel so if it becomes a film or TV miniseries, a printed book might also happen, but I guess all this is a long shot. But the book has had some excellent reviews so you never know.
Regards

How Donald Trump’s policies will send America and the world into recession

I posted the following as a comment yesterday (17 Nov 2024) in reply to a person’s comment on my answer to a question at the Quora question and answer site. The search engines only pick up answers, so I thought I would post my reply here at WordPress as an article. This is the Quora page: https://www.quora.com/Why-are-global-emissions-rising-while-renewables-boom/answer/Chris-Pearce-12.
