I have started a new book using Lulu (self publishing website - if you're interested click on the link).
The idea is to group anecdotes and thoughts I have assimilated over the years under a number of headings such as "getting lost", "fear", "trespassing" etc. and experiences and thoughts will not necessarily be restricted to outdoor activities. So far I have written 3000 words and sourced a number of photos which will be integrated with the text. My previous six books have all had the themed titles of "Conrad Walks...", so for this one I have provisionally decided on "Conrad Talks".

Ah well! thinking caps back on.
I have just had an email from Gimmer saying he was having difficulty making a comment to this post, so I am just doing this test myself to see what happens.
