Heide: Hello {{ subscriber.first_name | capitalize() or "friend" }}. We wanted to talk to you about some redecorating we’ve been doing.
Iain: Yes, it’s not that we’ve been painting our houses, but we are almost ready to unveil a re-design of some of our book covers. The Clovenhoof series is getting a makeover.
Heide: We thought about having black and white outline pictures on the cover, and selling the paperback with crayons, so that readers could do their own colouring
Iain: No we didn’t. We definitely didn’t think about that.
Heide: No, you’re right. People probably have their own crayons, so we don’t need to include those.
Iain: Er, yes. Anyway, the pictures have been done and they look great. The changes bring them a little bit more up to date — the artist has done a great job.
Heide: We do still have a couple of boxfuls of the old style paperbacks. We wanted to see if anyone might like a bundle.
Iain: If people really like the old style, you mean?
Heide: Or maybe they just can’t resist a bargain. We only have 10 of these bundles, so it’s “first come, first served” as they say. What else do they say? “1st to see will buy”, “grab yourself a bargain!”, “only worn once”.
Iain: So that is Clovenhoof, Pigeonwings, Hellzapoppin’, Godsquad and Beelzebelle?
Heide: Five books. All signed by us. Twenty pounds for the bundle, and we’ll throw in UK postage. If you’re elsewhere in the world we will need to look at the postage specifically.
Iain: Get in touch if you’re interested.
