Hi Ginny (R)

Just to clarify, please, I gather that "Fall" (an unfamiliar term 
here in Australia) is some US English reference to the falling leaves 
of your cool climate deciduous tress during the Northern Hemisphere 
Autumn (whilst it is Spring here in the Southern Hemisphere).

(This presents a usability issue in terms of global English, I suppose.)

By the way, here in Australia, all of our native trees are 
evergreens. But then we get heat waves and bushfires at Xmas time (in 
fact California USA has had massive bushfires / AKA forest fires, 
ever since they planted our eucalyptus trees, which explode and need 
such fires to open their seed pods for forest re-growth).

That said, please be so kind as to specify a likely month of release 
for the book, please?

Cheers,
