I do releases two ways: either I shove a book in the hands of a total stranger (well, not always total - who doesn't know Santa Claus?), telling them it's their lucky day and getting the hell away before they can engage me in conversation, or I like to be sneaky. I particularly like reverse shoplifting: sneaking a registered book into a bookshop, or leaving herbal books in fruit'n'veg shops. The thrill of a wild release, in my opinion, is having people suddenly realise there's a book there where there wasn't one only a second before, and htem not have any idea how it got there. I try to make my releases as magical as possible. Nisaba _________________________________________________________________ Advertisement: Fresh jobs daily. Stop waiting for the newspaper.
