Robin Pilcher

Okay, so it’s out there

March 30th, 2010

My goodness, I’ve just heard it’s my publication day in the US. How exciting! I thought it was the beginning of May, just after the British launch, but I was wrong. Now remember, it’s THE LONG WAY HOME in the States and A MATTER OF TRUST in the UK, so don’t go onto Amazon and buy both books because you’ll be get chronic ‘deja-vue’ when you come to read them! I gave copies to my sister and to my cousin and bit at a finger nail for a week until I’d heard from them.

I think it’s probably going to be OK.

“Robin Pilcher is popular novelist Rosamunde Pilcher’s oldest son, and living proof that talent does run in families…..with his Scottish sensibility and captivating wordplay, Pilcher is able to craft a fine and fulfilling novel.” (Booklist)

“If An Ocean Apart is any indication of Robin Pilcher’s works, then it is only a matter of time before the author becomes as well-known as his mother.” (Amazon.co.uk.)

“My family was brought up with the feelgood factor, so that’s what I write about. Real people and believable situations. My characters may be criticized by some as being stereotypical, but quite honestly, I take that as a compliment. One can associate with them.” (Robin Pilcher)
