‘Every Skirmish, Every Battle’
As those who know me will attest, I am not a huge book reader–or indeed a reader of huge books, although I have published quite a few giants. I tend to concentrate on reading the books I’m lucky enough to publish and re-reading my favorite fiction authors, normally when on holiday.
Richard Charkin
What’s really exceptional, given my attention deficit disorder–most acute during tedious sales conference presentations–is that I should read a 510-page, 500-words-per-page, business history book. ....

‘I Started by Listening to Music’
I suffer from a pre-COVID-19 form of mild obsessive-compulsive disorder, or OCD. Actually, it’s even more acute during  the pandemic.  It’s called walking. I walk roughly 20 kilometers (12.4 miles) every day.
Richard Charkin
I walk for health, physical and mental. But 20 kilometers a day, which takes approximately four hours, can be boring, particularly when one is obliged not to venture too far from home because of lockdown restrictions. To counter the ....

Editor’s note: This week, contacts at the UK’s Publishers Association tell us that Brexit’s impact on publishing still are unclear, but many in the business have worried aloud for years that the tradition of British exclusivity in Europe could be threatened.

Tealight trouble
We were a party of about 15 in All Bar One, which was filled with other office parties. It was a sit-down Christmas dinner and, after the main course and cracker pulling, I wiped my mouth with a large cloth napkin and accidentally put it down on a lit tealight. It caught on fire immediately – there were flames and smoke and the waiter was hitting it with a cloth and throwing jugs of water as people gasped in terror. I was absolutely mortified – I scurried off to the toilets during the pandemonium and never returned. ....
