COLLECTING REALLY IS MY LIFE
Work is never easy, especially when you are trying to cram in as many things as me. I am absolutely exhausted but the hard work has finally paid off and all the nice things are just around the corner.
My book The Greatest Collecting Tips in the World is finally out and ready to buy from all good collecting site like this one worldcollectorsnet, bookshops and collectable centres. I launched it at the Prestigious Earls Court Book fair just a month ago and the feedback has been fantastic as everyone seems to have enjoyed it. So if you haven't managed to get a copy yet - make sure you do.....
With a book being published of course the next step is publicity and this is coming on in leaps and bounds, I am booked to do around 15 radio shows over the next couple of days which is ever so exciting. Just a couple of weeks ago I went on air with Robert Elms on his BBC London show, we had a ball talking about obsessive collectors, what to collect, how to find it and how many of us have to build and extension or even get a new house to accommodate our ever growing passion for anything and everything deemed collectable.
I dare say the same is going to be said repeatidly over the next few days as I chat to different audiences about their collecting habits.
Another exciting thing is that I have been requested to do a piece for a National newspaper but will give you all the details for that later on.
Then of course off cruising again, first to Italy then back for a while until I hit the Baltics. I can't wait to snap up all those collectable goodies whilst on my travels, especially from Italy - my most favourite country in Europe.
I have also been asked by Richard Dennis to appear as their guest lecturer at the Dennis Chinaworks Open Day this year. A complete honour as usually they only have really established experts talk to their collectors.
Then in November it is the Great British Collectors Club event taking place in Peterborough, not too sure what all this is about but again been asked to talk at the event so will fill you all in nearer the time.
Auction is still busy at Staceys, I carry on writing for all the magazines here in the UK and Australia and still have a multitude of other things going on in my life, including sorting out my new website http://www.tracymartin.tv/ But hey - without collecting this would never have happened to me. So I can't complain as Collecting Really is My Life.....
Oh one more thing TOP TIP: Buy the Greatest Collecting Tips in the world by Tracy Martin, it is such a good read!!!!!!!
