Heide and Iain's Writing newsletter - August
Published: Thu, 08/16/12
CLOVENHOOF IS LIVE ON AMAZON!
The official launch is in September, but we've put it onto
Amazon as an e-book, so that we can build up some reviews from our
brilliant friends and family in advance.

Physical copies will be available at the launch in September. If
you'd like one and you can't come then the next newsletter
will tell you how to get hold of one.
