Advice from Mumsnet TERVEN

[Terfdiarist]

Hoping to get some advice here. Mumsnet admin - please don’t delete as am not posting link or details!

I have 5-10 PR copies of my new non fiction TERF book that I can send out to people or organisations who I hope will read it and help spread the word. Not going to name the book as last time I did Mumsnet deleted my post!!

If you were me who would you send it to? The clue to what the book’s about is in my username and it’s an account of the past decade of insanity in the UK.

I have thought of a few people to send it to but would be good to hear ideas.

Just popping on with an update that has made my day!!

Colin Wynter is great!

He is!! Such a thrill to see him with my book - he’s truly one of the good guys.

Have just seen that James Dreyfus has reposted you @Terfdiarist . 🥰

He Is wonderful too!!

Congrats!

Just been googling to see if Waterstone's stocked it (they don't) but inadvertently discovered that 'terfysg' is Welsh for 'riot'!

I’ve just searched the Cambridge University Library catalogue, and it’s not there.

It’s a Legal Deposit Library (as is the National Library of Scotland) but perhaps they haven’t asked for one yet.

If I just search for ‘terf’ some interesting things come up, though, including ‘The Women who wouldn’t Wheesh’, which is in two Cambridge college libraries.

Retired librarian here. Unless things have changed since I retired, the acquisition and cataloguing process isn't exactly lightning-fast. Think months rather than weeks for a legal deposit library because of the sheer number of titles involved.
