Hi Everyone!
So sorry that yet again time has run away from me today and I have only just posted my blog.
I have been super busy, non-stop and have had some amazing news, which has meant lots of sorting out and getting things in place.
We are only 4 working days into my book being available - 3 really as I received all the emails at 10am this morning. Already Amazon is temporarily out of stock - ( don't worry you can still order your copy and have it wrapped as a gift however please bare in mind with xmas delivery you may have to wait a while longer as Shield Crest are now having to work like crazy to publish more copies - YAY!) We are also having to have more and more books published because we are GOING GLOBAL - we have hit America and Oz! Shield Crest have had so many demands partially from these two countries from media outlets wanting to work with my book, write reviews and articles using it! WHICH IS AMAZING!! As my hope was to educate America on this issue a lot more and pull them up for them being quite behind compared to ourselves and other countries when it comes to food allergies. I am having to send out one of my personal copies to America first thing in the morning because Shield Crest have run out and publishing can take over a week. Of course we don't want to keep our customers waiting! We have also had an AMAZING response from London and a lot of media companies wanting to review my book within the city. So I THANK YOU, THANK YOU, to all these outlets and the countries themselves for embracing my work and the cause in which I am so passionate about. I am buzzing!!
I am just truly overwhelmed and can't take it all in! My mind is going 1,0000000 miles an hour with all the work and future plans I have in the pipeline. SO EXCITING. All this has called my publisher to already want to make my paperback book to be made into an Ebook and Kindle form! I have just agreed to go down this route and due to high demands and the festive season this is a feature we can look forward to being available in January! I will keep you all up to date on that one!! My publisher and I have also been discussing our next book mission!! CRAZY EXCITING!
My website here - will also be improving ( bare with me, as I need time to work on it and it is pure craziness right now) however, you will be able to get straight to my YouTube channel and videos from my homepage, SUBSCRIBE to my channel and lots more little things I have in store for you in the future fingers crossed - all secret for now though. So I am updating it to fit in all these features.
I hope to bring you all more YouTube videos - if you have any video requests, taste tests you would like to see, challenges or even certain people to be in a video please comment and let me know!!
Oh course this will increase the work demand so blogs may not be AS consistent. With Thanksgiving tomorrow I am hosting a little American Themed evening with close friends I do it every year to celebrate my love for America! Though this year I will be filling my guests with recipes from my book -UNITED TASTES OF AMERICA, along with a few treats I would like them to try! I aim to create a video from the event so I will fill you in with that as soon as I have edited and got it up on my channel.
I am off for some good food and sleep now, definitely an early night for me! I need my rest for all this craziness - it's FAB. THANK YOU ALL AGAIN,
SO, SO, SO, SO
MUCH!

Who know's we may even change Donald Trump's ways of eating in the White House ;) or maybe he has an intolerance or allergies to encourage him to improve laws and regulations over there! Anything is possible. Keep the good vibes flowing! Love and peace.
