Looking great, Merman! I think it's time to preorder this bad boy next payday (assuming they'll ship to Australia).

Nice likeness on the About the Author section, by the way.

More than half way, so things are looking good.

Still hard at work editing and proof-reading here...

The Foreword for the book has been written by a MYSTERY GAMING CELEBRITY. It's really funny and fits the book perfectly.

Remember, this is a limited edition, so pre-ordering will make sure you secure a copy.

A good guess. But wrong

True. I'm a mystery, but not a celebrity.

Yep, it's a real word.

Slow going with the editing at the moment, but we're getting there. Slowly.

Excellent. I'd much prefer a book with few errors and mistakes that takes longer to get out than a rushed one with lots!

First five chapters are now laid out, and for your delectation and delight here is a mock-up of how the finished book will look...
