Why so gloomy, Drac? Let the sunshine in!
Dracula in the Colonies, my new poetry collection, has been stepping out into the spring light with pleasingly positive results and surprisingly few scorch marks:
- “My Wellington” article in The Post (you may hit a paywall when accessing this one): My Wellington: Tim Jones on life beneath the trees, where the tūī yell and the stories start
- Flash Frontier feature – many thanks to Michelle Elvy for this: Ah, Dracula! Tim Jones on poetry, squatting and being a creature of imagination
- Beware the Moon interview- my thanks to Denver Grenell and Tee Wood for including me me in this series – make sure to check out the other interviews, too! NZ Horror Books: Author interview with Tim Jones & Andrew Imms
As a bonus, my climate fiction, and climate fiction in general, has had a lovely boost from Claire Mabey in The Spinoff. It’s been a good way to finish the year.
Three Ways To Make Dracula Count
If you’d like to help Dracula in the Colonies meet more readers, here are three things you can do:
- Ask for it in bookshops: If your local bookshop doesn’t stock Dracula in the Colonies, please ask them to! All the details they’ll need are on The Cuba Press order page for the book.
- Ask your local library to order it: Many libraries have pages where you can ask for books to be added to the collection. If your local library doesn’t stock the book, please request it.
- Goodreads: If you use Goodreads and have read Dracula in the Colonies, please add a rating, or even better a review, to the book’s Goodreads page.
