Today my parents happened to call into the Teesside retail park branch of Borders — the way you do, when you happen to be the parents of an extremely talented author 😉 (And, before you ask, no, they haven’t any other offspring!) You can imagine their delight when they discovered that If I Never already has its own very prominent and quite flash display.
My father, ever prepared for such circumstances, whipped out his camera and took a few photos.

A sample chapter of If I Never can be read here.

I love how incredibly modest you are (that is to say, the idea that you’re modest isn’t the least bit credible.) But I also love this:

Put Your Stock in God; He’s Never in a Recession
I tried hiding my light under a bushel one time but the bushel wasn’t big enough so I gave up 😉
God, where do they get these related posts from? LOL.
Well done Gary, I love it!!!
Thanks, Frederique!
::perfect::
One minute I’m idly wondering how G. is faring, and the next I’m umm.. almost wetting myself with pleasure.
Sincerely delighted too.
That “-A-” takes me back a bit. You wouldn’t happen to be who I think you are, would you? 🙂
Lovely to see you over here — and I’m delighted that you’re delighted. We really must catch up very soon, mate.
Mais oui 😉
Will drop you an email ASAP. You wouldn’t happen to be on Facebook, would you? A lot of the old gang is.
Awesome! I’m sitting here with a goofy grin as if it’s my book up there. LOL
I’m very happy and excited for you, my friend! ((hugs))
You know, CharLottie, in a way, it is your book. All the support I’ve had over the years helped make it possible.
You’re not getting a cut, though 😉
this is amazing mate, to have watched you work hard all these years, and now see it pay off is a great thing to witness. Will be getting my copy soon!
Cheers, mate! Looking forward to hearing what you think of it!
That is incredible, Gary! I’ve never seen such a posh diplay for a first-time author! Nor often for well read authors for that matter.
Delighted for you!
Thank you, Nienke! It is pretty amazing, isn’t it? Really over the moon.
Looks great Gary!
Thanks, Kathleen — received yours, yet?
Fantastic, Gary. Best of luck, here’s hoping it’s a bestseller 🙂
Cheers, Gary! Like the song says, “If I Can Dream”! 😉 Ain’t holding my breath, but giving it my best shot… who knows, right?
And I did send Stephen Fry a copy, after all LOL

That is so utterly cool. Sad that Borders will now be gone, but hopefully you can still carry on book sales in other venues for many years to come. It’s a great display though.
