Launch Party

Me & John at the launch (note our faces
have been masked to protect our privacy)

Last Thursday was the launch party for my book in London. Thank you to everyone who came along - your support is as always appreciated.

To those who missed it, I apologise not being able to announce it on this website, but it was advertised on our main website, so we thought most of you would have known about it.

The reason it wasn't mentioned here was due to a malicious hacking attempt on this very site by (no doubt) some sick-minded b@st@rds who have nothing better to do with their time than try to gain access to my website. John spent all weekend increasing the security, so this will not happen again!

Anyway, I digress. To those who didn't make the launch, I'm pleased to say I am now accepting orders via this website (or our main one), whichever you prefer. If you PayPal me  £19.95 + £3 postage (UK addresses only!), I'll get one in the post - well, John will be the one running that side of the business. If you'd like me to sign it, please add an extra £2 to cover my time.

The book itself looks wonderful and Hector has done a marvelous job with this and we're sure you'll all agree.  Unfortunately, we couldn't come to a mutually acceptable agreement with Amazon, so you can't get a copy from there just yet. But John and I will be meeting with Amazon representatives in London in early November.  For the time being you can only get these directly from me, Our dear friend, Simon Mephistopheles, who is a retired literary agent, is working hard trying to get some other stockists interested in supplying my masterpiece and we'll let you know more in due course. We fully expect A Journey To The Motherland: My Love Affair with Northenden, to be an instant best seller.

Anyway, that's all for now - don't forget to visit the main site, as that's where I'll be concentrating my efforts for the foreseeable future.
