ABOUT salopianeditions
NOW THAT YOU'VE FOUND THIS WEBSITE
you'll find there's nothing for sale here: the site is strictly non-commercial. You won't need to disclose any of your personal information other than the usual coded stuff we unwittingly divulge by engaging with the internet.
In fact, this website is intended to be used by people who read. It's the successor to shropshireladeditions, launched in 2005, to publish the memoir Talking to Myself which was unlikely to be produced in book form. The site remained online for about five years, and attracted the accidental notice of a number of unexpected but welcome readers, led to it by search engines during their varied and disparate researches.
Salopianeditions has the same fundamental objective but will range more widely to share more work in writing and photography. The following brief notes explain what you're likely to find in each section when you click on a navigation button.
