Women's Institute Love Libraries Petition

It is good to know that the Women's Institutes are supporting the petition for Love our Llibraries by signing on line. It is possible to cut and paste the URL  http://www.thewi.org.uk/standard.aspx?id=24427. The closure of many libraries would be a big disadvantage to both children and adults and our country in general. As a writer and a reader I appreciate the support of such an influential organisation, and everyone who can help preserve our public libraries.
I did have a pleasant surprise today from G C Books who organise the sale of books at Wigtown Book Festival at the end of September. All the available copies of A Home Of Our Own and Heart of the Home had sold. So thank you to all who bought my books also to all those who made such a delightful and responsive audience.
