This is so hilarious because I am currently penning right now. It would be cheating if I answered before 1st May 2017, so, rain-check?

Dear Sharon. The unfortunate situation is that I am releasing a book on a subject matter I had presumed would long have been concluded. As we both know the trial or appeal is still ongoing. We are almost there. I'm thus conflicted as my editors etc insist I stick to the plan of releasing a complete book rather than bits and pieces as the case continues. I am truly sorry for the delay and hope you'll still enjoy the book once received.

Hi Sharron
Apologies for the dilatoriness. We're almost there. The package is almost on its way. The fourth month delay is truly unacceptable but once you receive your package you'll understand why it's taken slightly longer.

Morning Andrew. Sincerest apologies. It's absolute madness this end as you can imagine. Not sure where you are but if your are outside South Africa or even within and prefer Amazon the book will be available on Amazon after the Easter Holidays. Print copies will be available at all leading booking stores in approximately 6 weeks as I have concluded a distribution deal.

Suzanne my sincerest apologies. I had answered this question and for some reason it failed to update. I was advised to await the outcome of Pistorius's application for leave to appeal. Now that that is dusted the book will be dispatched. I have no doubt you will enjoy the read.

I suppose because this book is non-fictional in character and my other works are academic and autobiographical I haven't experienced writer's block. However, I'm not always in the right frame of mind to write and on such days I read.

The best thing is the reaction you get from individual readers. Sometimes it alters your perspective. I'm always fascinated by how my writing is interpreted.

Aspiring writers might resist the fear of failure. They must concentrate on the type of books they prefer to write and place emphasis on being brilliant and unique so that readers can experience that freshness.

I'm currently putting the final touches to my new book and also simultaneously finalizing my autobiography, Odyssey of a woman which will be out in the new year. My book trailer is currently being filmed and I'm running a crowdfunding campaign on Publishizer.

I'm inspired by a hunger deep in my belly to get my perspective out there. Sometimes I listen to analysts getting it wrong and I'm immediately motivated to add a chapter or page or paragraph on the principle in the book.

From the criminal trial of Oscar Pistorius primarily. The book was also influenced by Doctor of Laws research topic.
