beijing tai tai reborn

I am just beside myself to announce that my China musings have been revised, updated and reborn into a fabulous new book - Beijing Tai Tai: life, laughter and motherhood in China's capital - and will be released by Exisle Publishing as their lead Mother's Day trade paperback.

This book means the world to me; its contents form some of the most precious years of my life and I'm thrilled to be sharing it in this form. It has been a joy to work with the amazing team at Exisle Publishing, including publisher Benny Thomas, publicist Carlie Harris and my editor Anouska Jones.

Here I am meeting with them on Friday in beautiful Wollombi in the Hunter Valley - left to right - Carlie, Benny, Anouska and me. They are part of the most vibrant team, producing an incredible line-up of books, and I'm honoured to be on their list.

Beijing Tai Tai will be released this April. Keep an eye on the blog for news on launch events - it's going to be a glorious journey!
