The inimitable Mazz, who took photos of the launch, which appeared in the Sydney Star Observer in my own special little section. Darryl to my right, Eli to my left, and their friends in front of the window display at the Bookshop Darlinghurst In front of the Bookshop window display holding the flowers which I got from Penguin.

OK. This one looks better holding the book then holding the flowers. By the way, clothes by Wilson Stuart. Hmm, kind of a cheesy photo but oh well. Nuzzling my newly released book... See, after we took the photos at the Bookshop, we went to deliver the film to be developed (for the next day's edition of the Sydney Star). And on the way, Daniel and I decided to do an Amelie pose.

In fact, I think that my facial expression is much more like Amelie's than Daniel's but Dan never pretended that his expression was going to be close. I practise at these things. And then, in between the Amelie poster and the film place, we stopped by Arial books and took this photo of me in front of the new releases... Oh success, here I am dropping off the film into Platinum Images. Mission completed. Isn't this a fantastic optical illusion shot. Look how big my head is compared to my arm.
