I have written before about why I started my blog. For those who missed it one of the main reasons was due to a friend who’s wife, an aspiring writer and a vile human being, insisting that anyone that self publishes does so as an act of vanity which is probably why she had never been published and for the most part refused to work. Writers retreats she enjoyed a plenty I believe.
Anyway, perhaps I ended up proving her point, but I suggested to my friend that I would from that day forth take up writing and publish a book before she did just to prove the point that surely it isn’t that hard and perhaps if she wasn’t such a horrible cow she might have achieved more.
Anyway, the result of that rant can now be found on Amazon in the form of my first book ‘A Collection of Inappropriate Limericks. Its only 300 or so of my limericks but it’s something I guess. Something I made that perhaps my grandkids will hold one day and ask “What the fuck was wrong with Grandad?”
Paperback out now with the E-book to follow on the twelfth mostly because I made a mistake setting it up and couldn’t work out how to remedy it.’
Oh and I dedicated it to her too. Seemed only right.

I can’t wait. I’m going to read the entire thing in one sitting- to my wife. I figure it will either make her horny or I’ll be getting a divorce. Either way I win.

Hey, your US paperback version just says “unavailable.” However, thank goodness I can get the e-book version right now…er April 12th. Sigh ;P Ordered, and patiently awaiting filth and depravity to assault my Kindle soon. I’m so pleased for you. I’ve been hoping you’d do this for a long time.
