New Blood

Well, I was thinking of posting Comm Cheque 3 today – there is 5 – but bearing in mind that there are no blog followers I guess no one is avidly awaiting the next instalment. Anyway, the point has been made. I created these little parodies of the office and because of these a female colleague asked me to pen a spoof of James Bond because her boyfriend was mad about him. And so “Doctor! Oh No!”was born. She and her boyfriend liked it so it achieved its objective. As previously mentioned, some years later, when out of work, I decided to see if I could write a whole comic novel and “Trouble Cross” was the result. Not that it was called that then as it went through various titles – “You Don’t See That On The Box”, “Not On The Box” and “Tommy Trouble”.

“Trouble Cross” has three strands – the main story, a previous adventure related by the main character in portions and “Doctor! Oh No!” written by the main character throughout the novel. To read the latter in its entirety go to the page on this blog – No W7 I expect you to die.

A colleague at mine at work published his book on Kindle before me and has recently launched his blog but it is far superior because it is embedded in a website – http://jeromegriffin.wordpress.com  – and he has more sales too. I am seriously thinking of reducing to 99p which seems to be the particular shade of grey that gets results for unknown authors.

Not bad on the puzzling today – nearly broke the elusive 30% – see Express Yourself.

Football season is over now that we are champions although there is still the 11 gunners salute today.

Nanu nanu.
