  5. Neal, I have over 200 pic sleeve foreign bits if you want to PM me, which I am ready to move on.

  6. Hi Neal - see your other post ....
  7. Hope this doesn't sound like a sales pitch, because that's not the intention at all, but A Nickel And A Nail is always on the look-out for new or established authors of soul and blues historical reference or northern / popcorn scene related texts. As well as being a platform for sales, we invite reviews of new books, chapter abstracts and author-written summaries of their work which all help support and promote their work. Cheers, Mark.
  8. Would agree with all the choices above regards quality, can recommend them all and most of them have have been best sellers at A Nickel And A Nail. Quality material out in 2016 indeed. It doesn't stop there either, and I've got some more in the offing for 2017, including something up my own sleeve... Mark.
  9. Until 6 January 2017, 10% discount on all orders over £20.00 made on soul / blues related books, fanzines, magazines and sheet music memorabilia at A Nickel And A Nail. Just quote HAPPYNEWYEAR on checkout. Follow the link: https://a-nickel-and-a-nail.myshopify.com/ Cheers, Mark.
  10. Just a periodic shout out / reminder to any potential or actual authors (whether self publishing or using traditional publishing houses) of soul, R&B or blues related literature : A Nickel And A Nail is a specialist independent mail order UK based bookstore, always on the look-out for new or established authors of soul and blues historical reference or northern / popcorn scene related texts. As well as being a platform for sales, we invite reviews of new books, chapter abstracts and author-written summaries of their work which all help promote their product. Away from the business end of things though, as a self publishing author of a few books myself, I am happy to give any general advice I can or share my experiences (good and bad), just get in touch. I'm also interested in connecting with anyone who maybe has an idea about a genre-related topic but who are just starting out on their first writing journey. Cheers, Mark.
