Been away

Well it's been an eventful christmas for me so I've had no time for blogging.
Firstly my Dukes of Dense book got published and became available on Amazon just in time for last minute christmas buying.

I finally got my own copy just last week as it didn't seem to want to ship to Ireland. when I finally saw the book I was a bit disappointed by the picture quality but apart from that I'm dead chuffed to be a part of it.

It has sold over 120 (last weeks figure) in just a few weeks and Patrick Henningsen has plugged it twice on two shows over the Christmas period. He really seems to love it.

It's also had 2 reviews. Lots promised to get their reviews in but still waiting......

Apart from this good news which kept me busy with last minute editing tweeks and artistic differences I then had a much needed visitor for Christmas. My sister, all the way from New Zealand. She's been whupping me and my house into shape.

Now I've got the brief for a second book so am going to be busy painting the illustrations for that. I might post them on Blurt first just like I did with the others if there is interest.

Just stopped by my wallet too to see the token has doubled so that's good news too.

Hope you all had a great Christmas like I did.
Buy my book 😘

Will definitely get it. Bookmarked. Added to my must get list. Its a big list and slowly checking them off. So might be a while. Maybe by the time you have your second one I will be ready to buy the two in one go.

I have many books in pdf and I am slowly printing them out into a print and paper of of my choosing for easier reading and not damaging to my eyes. Distaste for white paper with the way it reflects. (Guess that makes me racist now by the woke)

Spacebusters is awesome btw!

Thanx Yayo it'll be a while before the next one comes out. He's asking for a lot more pics.

Next they will want less words too. When I was a child I preferred books without too many pictures or none at all. I think it was the same for many around me since I rarely checked out many kid books during my elementary days, they started to get books above their intelligence level too. It's a srruggle at first but it grew on me. Thank you for your time.

I've been wondering where you went. Congrats! Didn't know you were an illustrator too!

The solution is up to you. You don't have to be a victim.

I love that message.

I hope you make a million bucks. Is there any way to get it besides amazon? I

Afraid not unless a real publisher takes it on. Thanx medear. I think I get about £1 per book sold but not sure until they give out the first dividends

I'll get a couple. It sounds like a fabulous book. And four more on the way!

They get into something I have been trying to tell people - flus and colds are detox events, and the worst thing you can do is to put more toxins into your body, such as tylenol, robitussin, nyquil, sudafed and especially tamiflu or paxlovid. Everyone I know who had a hard time with whatever it is they are calling covid, also took that kind of stuff, on their doctor's orders. I get into bed (because I am dizzy), drink fluids (because I am thirsty), eat little (because I am not hungry). The body tells you what to do. Just listen to yourself.

Welcome 🙏 Back 🥓

HA thats hilarious, kinda reminds me of the old yellow pages advert about the book 'Fly fishing' by J.R. Hartley. Totally made up but they had to make a book coz so many people started asking for it in UK.

she's never mentioned it but she's not in NZ anymore. She paid off her mortgage tho and intends to return if they stop all this nonsense. Long term plan is to spend summers there and here and avoid winters lol
