I popped into the London Bookfair today at the Exel centre in London.

My publisher, Pearson, had a big stand there and I wanted to catch up with some of their international rights people to thank them for selling the Japanese rights to Start Your Business Week by Week.

While I was there they had more good news for me. They are in advanced negotiations for Start Your Business Week by Week to be published in six other countries, and had signed a deal that day with a publisher in Romania.

Now I'm not going to become rich from the Romania deal, as you can imagine, but there's a real feelgood factor about helping people there start a business.

They're also in negotiations for international rights to my other books: "The Small Business Handbook", "How to Fund Your Business", and "How to be an Entrepreneur".

I'll keep you posted as my books become available elsewhere in the world.
