 There was a profile of Damien Hirst and his new work For The Love Of God by me in the New York Times a couple of weekends ago. I was on holiday and failed to notice it appearing.
Meanwhile, sad to see all the 41 Places stories coming down. Some of the artworks are on sale; a couple have already gone or are spoken for. If anyone's interested and wealthy, drop me a line. I promise to be cheaper than Damien Hirst.
Also. There will be a second book including photos of all the artworks for sale soon in a special edition of 41 copies only, each with a different cover based on one of the artworks. It's designed by Richard Wolfstrome, with photographs by Kenny Laurenson. There's a theme going on, as you can guess. And yes, your own individual copy of 41 Places:41 Books will cost you precisely £41 including postage for the UK. Again, a few in the series 1 to 41 have already gone.
The big news, and a surprise to me, is that UnMadeUp is now over a year old... I started it in May 2006. It has published 61 pieces of original non-fiction writing, most of which was published here for the first time. In the last couple of months it has also grown into what I think is a unique non-fiction publishing company.
Meanwhile, I'm looking for new pieces to kick start UnMadeUp after the lull that 41 Places inevitably created. Do you have any beautifully-hewn true stories to tell me? To celebrate the first birthday, why don't you send it to me? Don't be shy.

A growing collection of narrative non-fiction miniatures
 £8.99 incl. p&p (UK only) Outside the UK email UnMadeUp for details.
MORE! Send me MORE! Un-MADE-Up eats stories. If you've enjoyed the work published here on Un-Made-Up, maybe you'd like to add to this collection. If you have a true story that you would like to submit to Un-Made-Up please send it to me. The stories don't have to have a punchline, they don't have to be dramatic, they don't have to be funny, they don't have to make a point, they don't even have to be autobiographical; they must be under 1,000 words long, they must tell a story of some sort - however small - and above all they must, of course, be true.
If you are an illustrator or photographer who would like to add your take to one of the stories, please get in touch with me, William Shaw..
