Kyla writes to tell us that over the past year she has been helping to put together a book entitled “The Thrill & The Hurting” which is a lovingly compiled anthology of poems and art inspired by Kate’s work. The book is 6.99 GBP and will soon be available to order from the Morning Fog Press site here (from the end of October) or from this link at Amazon and also WHsmith. Advance orders on the book have already totalled 40, out of the 100 that will be available. There are 66 pages and colour artworks including a dedication page artwork by Debi Bowes (Debi’s work has most famously graced the pages of HomeGround magazine). 
The foreword is by Krys (of HomeGround) and the blurb on the back taken from her foreword says :- ‘Between these covers you will find poetry and artwork by those so inspired by Kate’s music, with themes of love, life and broken hearts, just as you will find in her music.’ The book has been created by the forum members at this site’s HomeGround/KBN&I web community and co-edited by American prize winning poet, Collin Kelley. Design is by Jason Carty. Kyla et al have set up Morning Fog Press (site coming soon, logo left also by Jason Carty) to facilitate ISBN’s and further publications. Congratulations to all involved! The book, which has contributors from all over the world, will be officially launched in London on the 4th of November. You can also be sure that one of these special limited editions will be reserved for Kate herself! (Thanks Kyla, visit her Myspace page here, click on the book title above left to see the full cover)
