In early November I took a photo of myself holding a short message for the ‘soon to be President’ Barack Obama. It was as part of a Flickr group which I thought was a nice idea and which seemed to capture the mood at the time. I mentioned it here and, to be honest, thought nothing of it until I received an email from Meg who was heading up the project to compile some of the photos into a book (modesty prevents me from suggesting the chose the best photos), who asked if I’d mind if they (The Guardian) included my photo in their book.
Of course not!
I received my copy of said book yesterday and, whilst I realise it is close to Xmas, it would make an excellent stocking filler/coffee table book and you get double karma points as all the Guardianโs profits from the sale of the book will go to the Katine development project.
And don’t worry, it’s not JUST my ugly mug that adorns the pages.
Fame at last!
I’m pleased that, for once, they asked permission. Maybe the message is getting through?
Step 1 – get in a book
step 2 – write more than a sentence!
