It’s fantastic to see my new book in Waterstones in Wolverhampton. I’ve spent so much time in there over the years - it’s still an unreal feeling to see my own books on the shelves!.
Last week's #Wolverhampton Top 10 best-seller list is bookended by our #BlackCountryDay visitors! A brilliant first week for @Richard0Connor's Paranormal Black Country, which tops the chart, and great to see @bctype in there as well with his latest photography book, Ay It.
