October 2021

 If you’re in London in October, you can see Romeo and Juliet at the Globe. Oh, I wish!

As always, this promo for the book Shakespeare calling – the book. Indie authors like myself always need support, even now when book signings and lectures can again be scheduled. Only on the Internet can I reach people like you, who are interested in Shakespeare would like to have the blog in book form, as well as support the Shakespeare Calling project. I do so hope you will help me by ordering the book online. Thank you.

The book is available for those of you in Great Britain and parts of Europe on this site:
