Great news Roger. Any chance of a sneak preview of the cover?
You want me to scan the cover and then post it here as some sort of attachmemt?
How long have you known me, Rob?

What did Groucho Marx once say?  "Even a 4 year old child could do that.....quick, run out and find me a 4 year old child!"

Thanks indi - the book looks great!

The white album...err... book



Buy now from here: https://www.createspace.com/3647502, or wait a week or so and it'll be on Amazon.com

(it's most excellent, you know you can't wait a WHOLE week!!  :) )

It would be nice if you offered Paypal for people with trust issues.

When will we see the finished cover? I've always loved them.

When will the book be available in the UK? The £8+ postage from the USA is a trifle steep!

Book ordered, at a total cost of £11.80 incl standard international shipping.  So, I should see it sometime by summer.

That is the final cover; they wanted something a little different this time round.

Yeah, postage from the US is pretty steep... sorry. We're going to try and get a Kindle version done which would eliminate that, but that'll take a little time to put together. (I always prefer proper books too I have to say)

Use Lulu - they print and despatch from the UK - (from Eastbourne).

We may well do a release there as well, the only issue is Amazon don't permit the "same" book to be published in 2 different places. There has to be "changes".

I don't expect that it would take much to do a Lulu version, we'll look into it.

Hi, co-conspirator here (I'm to blame for the typesetting/Graphics). I'm the other one involved in the production of this book, ever since the "Hey, why don't we..." realisation.

Lulu was in fact the source of the first few "prototypes", but there was pretty much only the single landscape format print size and it wasn't quite a good fit for the strips. So overall Amazon - and all their hoops - seemed like the way to go. Maybe we can do The Return of Beau Peep: Director's Cut for Lulu?

I'd be delighted/horrified to hear suggestions for improvements.
