Isn’t the internet fantastic? And how observant of you, Jill, to spot Jason’s photo. I must say the original is really impressive. I’ll make contact with him, too, and ask my publisher if they’ll send him a copy of the book. I hope you enjoy it — UBS are the chief stockists in Dunedin. Do say hello if you’re ever aware of our paths crossing! Thanks for writing to me and to Jason.

Hi Penelope, you don’t know me (though I do come from Dunedin) -thought you might like to read a bit of the story behind the cover image of your wonderful book – look here….. http://www.flickr.com/photos/s0ulsurfing/4730517460/
Jason the photographer is a flickr friend of mine.
Good luck with the book….I’m getting a copy soon (both for the story and the cover )

Not long till we’ll be holding a copy of “Island” in our hands, Pen. 52 days… Congrats!

(And how timely that you should be heading out to Quarantine Island – Martha’s, Kahu’s, Leisel’s and yours – just two weekends from now.).

The cover becomes more dramatic every time I see it. xx
