Nick,
Great site you have here. I loved the opener to “The Sea, The Shore.” Congrats from a fellow Willesden Herald shortlister! Cheers.

Dear Mr. Holdstock,
This is a PhD student at LSE. I’m organising Anthropology of East and Inner Asia seminar series for Michaelmas Term 2009 and I’m wondering would you be interested in presenting your work in one of our seminars?
My supervisor thinks you have quite in-depth knowledge and first-hand materials about Xinjiang and it’ll be great to have you for our seminars. Please send me an email if you are interested and I can explain more.
Many thanks,
Hui
