Yesterday I submitted the draft for the paperback book I have been writing for the last eight weeks. It’s a story of The Vocal Booth Weekender and how it came about. During the course of writing the book I shared a few words from this blog, which I’ve been contributing towards now for the last nine years! There is also a coffee table A4 photo book I have put together.
I know a lot of people have been with me since before I even had this website and some have only found me in the last few years. Throughout the course of my time on here I have written some pretty heartfelt and deep blogs. Some amusing, some sad but all food for thought in the hope to inspire others. Whilst writing this history of the VB I went through a hell of a lot of emotions and opened up a lot of feelings I didn’t realise existed or had tried to bury in the back of my mind. I felt it extremely therapeutic and just felt the need to send out a blog thanking you for your support.
The books will be on sale at VB2018 and the paperback available to read FOR FREE via the VBW App once the event is over. If you are unfortunate enough not to be attending in September but definitely would like a physical copy of the books, you can pre-order now.
There is no need to order if you are coming VB as there will plenty available.
I don’t want to say much more as it’s all been more than said in the books. At some point in the future I am sure that all of my relevant blogs from this website will be published as a paperback… THAT will make for some mental reading I’m sure!
Again… THANK YOU for being a part of my journey. I lost a little part of me in the past few years and now feel I am back to my normal, happy-go-lucky self. “FFS!” I hear you say 🙂
