It is official! My book on the entire Simple Minds music back catalogue is available for pre-order at Amazon and Waterstones in the UK, now! It’s due for release on 30 September 2026 but I am sure that if you’re able to pre-order that would help immeasurably.
It still doesn’t feel real and maybe it won’t until I have a copy in my hands.
Here are the links to the stores:
Congratulations, what an achievement! Super proud and happy for you. I’ve followed you and enjoyed your posts for years and know the ups and downs you’ve had while writing. What an accomplishment and well-deserved – you’re now a published author! 👏 I’ve pre-ordered a copy x
Thank you! For the lovely words, for being a regular, and for ordering the book. That’s so fantastic of you. I really hope you’ll enjoy it. It’s a bit of a long wait for release day but I hope you’ll think it’s worth it. Xx
Ordered! This is just fantastic Larelle. I can just imagine how much you are ‘buzzing’ with this getting released. I know I would be.
I hope it sells loads. You go, girl!

Oh, thank you! For pre-ordering for a start. That’s really good of you, thank you. And thanks for the support you’ve given me overall. I’m so very grateful. I am a little buzzed, I can’t lie but I am trying to keep myself level-headed and in-check. Still got my uni studies to focus on in the meantime. 🙂
Congratulations, I’m really looking forward to this . I wasn’t sure it was ever going to happen at one point, but so glad you pulled it back together and you finished it.
Thank you, Duncan. TBH, I thought the same too. It was a bit of a slog at times but I was determined to do at least ONE thing meaningful in this sad old life of mine. I really hope you’ll enjoy it. I just wish September wasn’t so far away!
This sounds fascinating Larelle, shall definitely be purchasing a copy. Love the cover art too, looks gorgeous! Congratulations and best of luck.
Thanks so much, Ben. I know it’s a long wait until September, but I hope you’ll find it worthwhile. 🙂
