it's my rank dimwittedness wot's my most appealing characteristic . . .

. . . so you can just imagine what the rest are like.

Over the weekend, an e-mail from the divine norilanabooks informed me sweetly (as sweetly as only norilnabooks can) that I'd managed to post the wrong version of the Leaving Fortusa ARC cover proof here.

What I posted was the penultimate proof, which differed by one word on the back from its successor. So here, in the interests of completeness or something like that, is the correct version:

To repeat: If anyone would like to review the book on their blog (or elsewhere), I've been told I can dish out PDFs of the ARC. Send me your e-address via the LJ system, and I'll despatch a copy in your direction pronto(ish).

You mean, that's him? Have you any idea what happened to his line thereafter?

That's him. I've no idea what happened to his family, or even if he had one. I saw some mentions of him -- a genuine Scots laird living in Jamaica -- and I know my father knew him (he was a landowner in the same parish, Jamaican parishes are hundreds of square miles in area I hasten to add). Taht's all.

Would you mind if I passed this on to the rest of the surviving family (depressingly few) who might be interested?

Not at all.
