It was tremendous fun trying to be an author. Publishing my first book was an amazing experience. Selling copies of it in the UK, USA, Denmark, France, Spain, India, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, Italy and Canada was exciting and it's a good feeling knowing that I've created something that managed to spread around the world.
However, it is (was) just a hobby and life is busy and challenging on its own, what with a new job and new responsibilities, as well as training for a marathon! The sequel to the book bombed, partly because 2nd time round, I couldn't find the time to market or advertise.
So I've decided to leave the hobby, at least until I retire. I gave it my best shot and had some fleeting thoughts of 'what would it be like if this goes global?' etc. Hope springs eternal.
So, if you bought my book, I send you my thanks and I hope it gave you some enjoyment. The sequel is out there.........
Over and out! :D D Shaw 11/3/13
