A comment by Tyrone Jenkins on a previous blog entry asks whether I intend to write a sequel to my previous books Crisis? What Crisis? and Rejoice! Rejoice!
And the answer is that I am indeed contracted to produce a third volume in the series, provisionally titled A Classless Society: Britain in the 1990s.
This will cover the period from Margaret Thatcher's dethronement in November 1990 through to the re-election of Tony Blair in June 2001. And it'll be the usual chaotic mix of high politics and low culture - though in this instance, the politics were a bit on the low side as well.
Like the previous two volumes, it will be published by Aurum Press, with the same editor - Sam Harrison - that I worked with on my Terry Nation book. It should appear next year, though I'm hoping there'll be an interim piece on the period available for download in March this year.

Excellent, am looking forward to it!
Thank you, Kieran. As I read more about the 1990s, I find myself wondering about an alternate history of the kind you do so magnificently (http://inaneramblingsofahistorystudent.blogspot.com/):
What if ... Bryan Gould had become Labour leader in 1992?
Thank you! And that does look interesting, I don't know masses about Bryan Gould, however it can be added to my list of alternate histories to create. Watch this space (also shamelessly ensuring further reading of said blog...)
