The Irish novelist, nautical scribe and well known yachtsman, Thomas Jobling, re-opens his 2015 book tour at Coleraine Yacht Club - the 24 Hour Race club - this Wednesday evening (14th Oct) at 19:00 hours.

Tom will be reading from his acclaimed novel Chasing Shadows as well as chatting about his life within the competitive sailing scene and also, how he went from a career in business to fiction writing.

As well as telling the story how his novel was conceived he will delve back into the 'mysterious' world of self publishing. Following his presentation he will be available to sign copies of his book. Chasing Shadows will be available to purchase during the evening at £9.50 each.

Tom Jobling will also be appearing at a number of other venues around the north of Ireland in the months leading up to Christmas. Dates and details are listed on his website, www.tnjobling.com.
