"They All Die At The End" - it's a collection of ten short stories dealing with all major facets of modern urban dread.
The stories cover loss, alienation, violence, moral dilemma, tax evasion, shopkeeping, bad driving, crème brûlée and restringing a ukulele - amongst other things.
They are gripping, compelling and, (very) occasionally, funny. Oh, and you can probably guess how each of them ends.
And now a copy of this book can be yours!
This book is now available for a wonderfully economical price on the Amazon Kindle platform!
"How very convenient," I hear you say, "but I don't have a Kindle".
Well, fear not because Kindle software is also available for PC, Mac, Android, iPhone/Pod/Pad, Blackberry, Windows Phone and dishwasher. Surely you've got one of those?
And the Kindle version is enticingly cheap to buy - a whole book of ten stories for only £1.71 (that's less than 18p per story!). Or, if you live in the USA, $2.99. I know, that's not a great exchange rate but I don't set the rules - Amazon do.
Alternatively, you can go old-school and order a conveniently pocket-sized paperback from lulu.com. That's more expensive - but paper doesn't grow on trees, you know.
But whatever you do - buy a copy! Quick!
For people who know me...
If you who would like to read my book but really can't be doing with the screen-based e-book thing... I won't give a detailed breakdown of publishing economics here but it would be better for you (and me) if you were to order copies from me rather than from lulu.com.
Putting it briefly, I can give you a better price and won't fleece you for postage while at the same time I can make a few more pennies from each sale.
If you are interested, please let me know how many copies you would like. The price will be between £7 and £8 per copy, depending on how many copies I order in total.
If I'm not likely to see you in person, I can post the book - it weighs about 175g which would add £1.09 if posted as a first-class large letter. (£3.20 to the USA or £2.11 to Europe as an airmail small packet). More than one copy - take a look at royalmail.com to price it up.

and what are you going to call this blog?
Diary of a self-published author yet to be published by a conventional publishing house?
Too wordy?
