I''m in Hong Kong for a few days. Here is the view from my window. It''s what''s known as a partial harbour view.

A British man who works in the Macmillan office here told me a nice story this morning. He has a domestic helper working in his home (this being Hong Kong she is likely an English-speaking Filipina, although I didn''t confirm this). He discovered that she had removed my first book, Falling Off Air, from his bookshelf. A few days later it returned, and the next book, Out of Mind, had gone. That''s all a writer wants to hear.

haha, she borrows without permission?

Did you ever find out what she thought of the books, apart from the fact that she wanted to read them?
