Book Signing at the Cinema Museum

9/10/2012

I'm really looking forward to signing copies of Niedermayer & Hart next Saturday (13 October). I was delighted when Dexter O'Neill of Fantom Films asked me if I'd like to be involved. I only got to know him last year, and he was very kind to offer his advice when I was in the process of publishing Niedermayer & Hart through the little company my wife and I started a few years back, called Odd Dog Press. He had originally got in touch with me to ask if I'd like to be involved in a panel interview he was organising - a day of talk events with the dubious title Acceptable in the Eighties!

My personal contribution to eighties Dr Who was in the guise of Tyheer and the Bandril Ambassador in the two episodes of the series Timelash - alas, never regarded (not even by die-hard fans!) as the Doctor's finest hour.

In fact if you're imaginative with words and good with letters, as pointed out to me by a fan on the Acceptable in the Eighties signing day, the letters in the title Timelash can be easily rearranged into a moderately rude and some might say quite apt two-word anagram. (For more stuff about Timelash see my blog Dr Who, Timelash and the Bandril Ambassador)

The event is at the Cinema Museum in Kennington, which is somewhere I'm certainly hoping I'll get a good chance to look around on the day. They have all kinds of interesting cinematic paraphernalia there and a fantastic programme of scheduled events. Take a look!

The book event itself is titled Cult Publishers Expo. I can hear them ask, Is Odd Dog Press a cult publisher then? No, definitely not, although I do have a friend who firmly believes N & H will attain cult status at some point in the future. Personally, I only wish he'd read the tea- leaves (or whatever gave him this insight into my up and coming good fortune) with a bit more precision timing-wise! A year - mmm, nice! Two years - yeah okay! Twenty years - oy veh!

I'm looking forward to seeing Paul Darrow there on the day - he was also in Timelash, although I think on this occasion he's there in his capacity as a cult hero from that cult series Blake's Seven. Be honest, did I use the word 'cult' too many times in the last two paragraphs?

If you live near Kennington or fancy a daytrip to London on Saturday 13 October, I'm sure it'll be a fun day. The day's programme of events runs from 11am til 4pm and there's a series of interesting talks throughout the day. The address is The Cinema Museum, Kennington, London and I'll be there from 11am until 2pm. So come along and have a chat or better still chat to me while I sign your copy of Niedermayer & Hart! And just think, if you do buy a book, not only will you be putting a smile on the face of an impoverished writer/actor, you may be helping N & H on its way to achieving cult status too! LOL!
