Best of luck with your art project!

Hello, firstly – amazing site!! Good to see positive things written about the royal family!!!
I wondered if you minded giving my own royal book a plug?? ROYAL ENCOUNTERS – Published by Amberley Press – this is a link from Amazon UK if that helps your readers…

Hi Paul,
It’s nice to “meet” you and thanks for the feedback. I appreciate it!
I would be very interested in your book. Would it be possible for you (or your publisher) to send me a copy? I’d love to take a look, and then perhaps we could do a Q&A on my site? I’m sure you have some great stories to tell!
Let me know what you think. If it’s not possible to send a copy , maybe we can work something out (i.e. I can order a copy from Amazon).
Happy holidays!
Mimi
