I may drop a subtle hint in some appropriate directions about Christmas, assuming Amazon get some in in time.

If Amazon don't get them, some of our Liverpool friends may be doing a bulk buy for the people of BD lol

Awesome Amazon must have a few now as they always seem to be in stock. I popped into the new Waterstones in Liverpool 1 to find they have about 6 or so out. They'll go quickly. Its still really odd seeing my book sitting there next to other peoples books. Some woman was looking at it and I said "Its a good book.... I did it, its good" she seemed to not know what to say and wandered off

Pete, here's something I bet you never thought you'd be asked...

Do you sign books?

I do Its really surreal though. The 2nd book I signed the guy said "Don't forget to date it. Its worth more if you die." I was like "O....k..." Just don't see myself this way. I've got books I'd love to have signed by the authors and I know why people want them signed, just its only me really. I'm no big author type.

That must have been a bit of a surreal moment. "worth more if you die". Oh gee, thanks.
