Do you know where the Isle of Man is? It’s a small island (32 miles long, 14 miles wide) in the Irish sea, about half way between Britain and Ireland. Not part of the United Kingdom, nor even part of the European Union, it has a curious relationship with the UK, having its own parliament and government, but dependent on the UK for foreign relations and defence. It has a population of just 80,000 people.
Litopia’s own John Quirk, a regular voice on Litopia After Dark, is a Manx man born and bred, and in this edition of Litopia Daily, he tells us about his plans to set up a publishing business on his home island. John’s first book, The Manx Connection, was published in November 2007. And his follow-up, The Manx Giant, has just been published. We’ll be following John’s progress at Nemesis Publishing every six weeks or two – so join us to see how he copes with the triumphs and challenges of a running a small press!
