Have a last winedark gander at old, Old Salt stories

I've just remembered that I promised Fremantle Press to take down the Old Salt posts, seeing as they have bought the rights to a lot of the stories that I posted before September last year. If you click on this link HERE and head back from there to 2008, you will be able to find Old Salt stories for another few days and then ... phhffft! (is that the sound when something online is deleted?) ... they will be gone. Gone I say! And the next time you see the stories they will be in a real BOOK. It sounds immodest but I'm a bit proud of them and some are shining gems, so have a butchers while they are still here.

By the way, the photographs won't be in the book, or at least I don't think so at this point. So I will create a linky thingy or even another pagey thingy with all of my fishing photos from the estuaries and bays of the south coast. There will be new Old Salt stories on A WineDark Sea. Don't fret. He's still fishing and so am I.

  1. That's the sound when I drag something off the bar to delete it on this machine. I even get a little puff of smoke to go with it. I wonder if that's what happened when they deleted Steve Jobs?

  3. I can't afford Steve's puff of smoke right now but when I'm rich and famous like you Tom, I'll buy a Mac with all the fruit.
    Barbara, you won't miss the photos. I've going to create an archive of them here. I'm just not sure how to go about it yet.

  4. Mac's are good. Good news about the book, leaving the photos out is a shame, but your writing can sustain the imagery easily.
