Eventispress author Diana Jackson is busy collecting the proceeds for sales of The Healing Paths of Fife sold in Kinghorn in the last three months in aid of Kinghorn Lunch Club for the Over 60’s. (most well over she says 🙂 ) She is going to let us know how much was raised as soon as possible.
Meanwhile for May, June and July the profits of books sold in Kinghorn will benefit Kinghorn Community Library (KLR)
Eventispress supporting local charities!
Eventispress author Margaret Roberts is giving a
Lunchtime Talk
on The Original Warden Pear
on 19th March, 2018
between 11:00 am and 12.00 pm
The talk is free but the centre asks for donations if possible.
Here is the Forest of Marston Vale website
Margaret explains:
“Having enjoyed widespread popularity until the late 17th century, the warden pear gradually faded into obscurity. The Original Warden Pear uncovers its story, bringing together evidence from monks, horticulturalists, physicians and bookkeepers. Poets, songwriters and playwrights captured the spirit of the pear from the late 14th century onwards, while 21st century DNA testing has sought to discover whether anything of the old warden pears has survived.”
Eventispress is pleased to support local charities.
Copies of Diana Jackson’s ‘Healing Paths of Fife’ are being sold in the burgh of Kinghorn at local shops in aid of the Over 60’s Lunch Club.
As a way of saying thank you to our local community, the profits of all copies of ‘The Healing Paths of Fife’ sold on Kinghorn High Street will be in aid of different Kinghorn charities, starting with The Over 60’s Lunch Club for February, March and April 2018.
Nigel Lesmoir Gordon explains:
‘You’ll doubtless recall that Luke Howard wrote some music a while back to accompany me at book signings and presentations for Life is Just… I recorded him playing the suite in St Swithun’s church, Sandy a coupla weeks ago. Here’s the Vimeo link so you can watch it:’
Nigel also writes:
A new review of The Keeper of the Faith : “I have just finished ‘The Keeper of the Faith’. It is a very personal book – all about the author’s experience, knowledge, passions, imagination and ultimate goal. The Vietnam section is excellent and could have made a book on its own. The ‘Keeper of the Faith’ is the right title. We are all trying to keep the faith through the vicissitudes of life and the struggles with our individual self.”
Thanks for the update Nigel. What a wonderful thing to have a piece of music composed for one of your books!
Great news!The Original Warden Pear by Margaret Roberts has now been released for sale in the UK on Amazon. All profits for this book will go to the Friends of Warden Abbey Vineyard ~ A community wine grower (Registered Charity No. 1176602).
Eventispress is extremely pleased to support this community charity!
HAPPY NEW YEAR
We wish our readers and authors a happy and successful 2018 and look forward to bringing at least three new projects to print this year.
OUR VISION As you know we are a cooperative and work together to achieve our goals, aiming to publish quality rather than quantity. Projects usually come to us by word of mouth and are often forwarded to follow a more appropriate route for the writer or the manuscript.
GIVING We welcome projects where there is an element of giving and are proud that our authors contribute to various causes with their time and part of their royalties. All projects are different.
NEW OPPORTUNITY We will be looking for at least one new author to join us this year ~ more details shortly, but that person will be quite special.
Another opportunity to meet author Margaret Roberts. She will be signing copies of ‘The Original Warden Pear’ at:
Eventispress author Margaret Roberts talked and signed copies of her book ‘The Original Warden Pear’ at the Warden Abbey Vineyard Open Day on Sunday 10th September 2017.
Brian Kerr also enjoyed success selling copies of ‘An Unassuming County’ at an Eventispress stall which displayed our publications highlighting our work in Bedfordshire.
I’m sure that a great day was had by all, as local producers sold their wares, alongside Warden Abbey Wines. Well done Margaret and Brian!
Here’s a fantastic review for Life is Just by Nigel Lesmoir Gordon.
“This story brilliantly captures the mood of the time – putting the reader ‘front and the centre’ of an innocent time in history that, only now, do we realise was the beginning of a huge cultural change that swept through the Western world. This was such an enjoyable read!
Alex Seymour ~ Author of The Psychedelic Marine.
Many thanks Alex. We think it’s a great book too!
