This is great news!!!! I can’t wait to buy a copy. Such excitement, congratulations Jo. All my GM emails are being directed away from my primary box, so I’m glad I spotted the tip off on Instagram. I think gmail is editing my life to make it as boring as possible.
so looking forward to your new book. Absolutely love your romantic planting style and so sorry to have missed the live video. I am not brilliant at looking at emails 😢
The book looks amazing, Jo, and it was lovely to see you talking about it. My one teeny tiny fear is that Substack will go the way of IG and try to make us all watch the wretched reels. I like them occasionally but I love the long, slow reads of the current posts.
Hi Moira - never fear as far as TGM is concerned: the long reads are how it’s going to stay. It’s the reason I came to Substack and the whole ethos of the newsletter 🌱🌱🌱
This is wonderful and I am so excited for your accomplishment, and for me to get to read it! Will there be a book tour?!? You should come to Chanticleer (ideally not during our coldest and wetted March in recent memory) this time. You would love it, if you have not already been. Then you can sign my copy and I can add it to my growing collection of Thompson autographed volumes :)
Perhaps we could organize a TGM meet up there. They allow picnics on the grounds and so I could facilitate some nice wine and cheese to refresh the group after wandering about.
’You’ve done it!’ I literally exclaimed out loud when I saw the title! It is THE book I hoped you would write and I cannot wait to read it! Absolutely the most wonderful news, Jo. Huge, huge congratulations! X
So sorry to have missed this. I don't have email notifications switched on, but apart from that tonight was the restart of my 3 hour French class on Zoom which is unmissable for me! Live video on Substack sounds great, particularly as Instagram is less and less enticing these days. The book sounds absolutely wonderful - going straight to the top of my wish-list.

Congratulations!
I haven’t been! There are plans for a spring visit to the US… I would adore to come to Chanticleer -
Perhaps we could organize a TGM meet up there. They allow picnics on the grounds and so I could facilitate some nice wine and cheese to refresh the group after wandering about.
This sounds like a plan… I’ll keep you in the loop on planned dates
Can't wait to read and admire...Well done you! And the Duran Duran link is very much appreciated...
I thought it would make a LOT of people happy 🤣
