For #BlackCountryDay this month, we have 2 great book signings in store on July 12th! At 12pm, Richard O'Connor signs copies of 'Paranormal Black Country', and at 1.30pm, local legend Tom Black Country Type Hicks will be here with copies of latest photo collection, 'Ay It'. #Wolverhampton

What a tragic loss. The dimming of a bright, shining light. Thank you for your magic, Diogo.

We're really looking forward to seeing Richard O'Connor and Black Country Type in store tomorrow for our #BlackCountryDay book signings! Please come along!

It’s fantastic to see my new book in Waterstones in Wolverhampton. I’ve spent so much time in there over the years - it’s still an unreal feeling to see my own books on the shelves!
