Sometimes We Should: take a minute to stand back and recognise we were in the right place at the right time, and lady-luck was by our side.
A Motorhead book I had accepted by a publisher was turned down after they'd had it for 5 weeks. So, I gave them another one, and they were and still are thrilled with it.
Wishing to move on, I asked if they had any interest in the one they rejected, and they said "no, you can find another publisher for that one."
And a day later, I did.
So now there are 2 Motorhead books on their way to publication, (+ Mick Stevenson's new Collector's Guide), so aren't we the lucky ones.
