The Best of Homeground Book

A project we have discussed many times over the last few years will see the light of day in 2011! Published by Crescent Moon Publishing, this will be an A4 sized book of some 800 or more pages which will feature a selection of the best of the writing, artwork, and photographs that have appeared in HomeGround over 29 years. At the moment the publisher anticipates that the price will be about £25, and it will be available from on-line retailers such as Amazon, and full ordering details will be right here.

5th January 2011. We’ve now been working on this for two years. We finally expect to complete the first working draft within a few days. With the introductions, and credits and acknowledgements it rounds out at 1200 pages. These may mean there is scope to slim it down somewhat. No doubt we will be discussing that with the publisher.

13th January 2011. First draft finished at 1224 pages including all the title pages, introductions, credits etc. We are now proceeding to corrections and further discussions as to final size.

17th July 2011. The completed sections of the book have now been sent to the publisher. These take the story to 2006. We are now working on the final sections which will bring the story up to date and include material which will be in issue 79.
