The Book by Cook

Karin Ficke Cook, that is.  Seven Doors of Time has so far had twenty four downloads but only a few sales, this isn't really surprising since we haven't paid for any advertising of the book.  It would be nice if we could afford advertising and I don't think we would go with the News of the World if we could.  Come to think of it I don't think anyone is advertising with the News of the World, certainly not Ford, Virgin and Coca Cola.  The loss of advertising revenue and the comment by one reader of the Oldham Evening Chronicle that anyone buying the News of the World would have to be nuts, appears to have done the trick - the rag is closing down - for good.

Back to Karin's writing.  It seems she can't stop and good for her!  I have just read her latest effort, based on a dream and featuring a character based on yours truly.  No you can't read it!  At least not yet, we'll just have to let you know when this new book of yarns becomes available.  What I can tell you is that one of the bad guys in the story pees his pants when he gets a load of me when I'm really pissed off!  And I'm really pissed off at the bunch of idiots!  You'll just have to wait for the ebook to be published.

Seven Doors of Time is not very expensive and will not break any one's bank account, unless their name is Buggs Bunny - he does not appear to have a bank account even though he seems to have a good supply of carrots on hand.  Those who have invested in a nice kindle (or any e-reader) would do well to make the purchase. So go on, be a devil and treat yourself to a book of short stories.
