Volume 2

Due to personel curcumstances I've have decided not to write a volume 2. I've also had to amend the current novel, so whatever you do don't buy it again! I will, however, be writing further novels, so watch this space.

Feedback.

Just wanted to say a big thank you to all those kind souls who have gone out of their way to give me positive feedback on the blog and elsewhere. It's much appreciated. It's nice to know that something I find funny can also be enjoyed by others!

An Evening With The Deliveryman

Whilst doing a book signing last year I was approached by a member of a local Women's Institute who asked if I would be willing to do a talk about the book. To be honest I hadn't really planned that far ahead but I said yes anyway. Once a performer always a performer!

So over the past few months I've scripted a presentation I can take on the road. It consists of readings from the book, a little bit of philosophy (a look at life from the cab if you will), stories I couldn't include in the book for litigation purposes! Stories from the new book and I'll even touch on my brief acting career and Coronation Street. May even finish with a song or two. Either way you'll get your moneys worth!

If you are interested and would like me to perform please contact me directly here leeball7@btinternet.com

In The Top Hundred Humour Books On Amazon!!!

Since November The Confessions of a Deliveryman has been in the top hundred humour books on Amazon and at one point was in the top twenty for over a month. Last month alone I sold nearly 700 copies. It's all a far cry from when I made the book available digitally back in March where I was selling something like 20 a month. Not sure of the reason for its popularity. Maybe word of mouth or maybe Amazon's 'if you bought this you may also be interested in' had something to do with it. Either way I'm very grateful.

Because of the books success I've decided to write a volume 2. But this time I'll write real stories. Due to the amount of sales a lot of delivery people have contacted me throught the blog asking me to tell their stories.

I've already started the book and all being well I should have it finished and available for the kindle at the end of March.

Book Signing - The Old Hall Bookshop, Brackley.

Just wanted to send out a huge thank you to Chris and her helpful staff last Wednesday. We had a great turn out and it was lovely to see so many of you down there. Even the local press turned out and all being well there should be something in the Brackley and Towcester Advertiser this week.

A big thank you for all the staff at Southfield School - especially the nursery girls in the picture!

Thanks again

Book Signing - 8th of June.

This Wednesday - 8th of June - I'll be doing a book signing at The Old Hall Bookshop in Brackley. Chris Bridger has been kind enough to allow me a little display in the store and local newspapers will be doing a couple of interviews. Well as my employer likes to say, 'every little helps.'

As a thank you for mentioning the book signing in their newsletter, I'll be donating a percentage of my takings to Southfield School.

If you have nothing planned on the day and you happen to be in Brackley, pop in and say hello. Even if you've got the book it's still worth coming along to see the shop and meeting the lovely staff.

See you then!

Book Release

After a long wait the paperback is finally available for pre-order on Amazon. The book retails at £6.99 - a little too high in my view - and you can find it here

Over the next few weeks the book will also be available at various bookstores including Waterstones, WH.Smith, etc. Just wanted to thank you all for your support over the past few years, it's much appreciated.
