Hello.

This is the second thing I have to say.

I have published a book!

I mean I wrote a book!

Someone else published it (http://www.quercusbooks.co.uk/)!

When reading the book in Oxford, one little girl asked her father 'Who is that man?'. Her dad replied, 'He wrote those books', pointing at a pile of copies. She looked skeptical, and replied, 'No he didn't - he just wrote one and then photocopied it.'

I am sad to say that that girl was completely right. I am a charlatan. I only wrote the book once.

It came out about a month ago, and got these nice reviews -

If this sounds like the kind of thing you might like, you can buy it here -

I am very pleased with it as it looks great, and I was lucky enough to have it illustrated by this genius -
